The bill amends the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act by updating the regulations regarding fish possession limits. It establishes that individuals cannot possess more than the daily possession limit of fish at the location where they were caught or while in transit to their automobile or residence. The language has been revised to clarify that the individual's automobile and residence are the designated locations for possession limits.

Additionally, the bill allows individuals to possess an extra two days' worth of fish that have been processed through canning, smoking, drying, or freezing, outside their residence. Inside their residence, there is no limit on the number of processed fish they can keep. The bill also clarifies that processed fish on a vessel or at dockside are considered to be in the individual's possession. Furthermore, it reinforces that possessing fish that have been illegally taken is prohibited.
