Well according to a friend of mine that had a friend at the meeting the rules were changed to a 10" length and 15 limit. It was for all of the reservoirs, not just Sardis.

This is more misinformation. I wish people would check the facts before posting about reg changes. Your friend and his friend are wrong. The vote isn't for 2 weeks and Sardis is the only lake with proposed changes. I hope nobody is gullible enough to read all these reports and go keep 15 10" crappie at $150 fine per fish. It only takes a minute to check the facts before posting bad, potentially harmful information.

Press Release
Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks

Regulation change proposed for Sardis Lake
JACKSON - Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks (MDWFP) Fisheries Bureau announced a proposal to change crappie length and bag limits on Sardis Lake. The proposal consists of lowering the minimum size crappie anglers can keepfrom 12 inches to 10 inches, as well as reducing the bag limit from 20 to 15 fish per angler. In addition, boats with 3 or more anglers will be able to keep 40 crappie per boat versus the current boat limit of 50.
"We are proposing the regulation change to evaluate Sardis Lake's ability to support the quality crappie fishery it is historically known for with a smaller size and bag limit," said MDWFP Fisheries Bureau Director Ron Garavelli. "We will be sampling Sardis throughout 2013 to evaluate the impacts these regulation changes may have on the crappie resource. If negative impacts on the crappie resource are found, we will recommend reinstating the 12-inch minimum in 2014." No changes are proposed on Grenada, Enid, and Arkabutla lakes, with current length and bag limits remaining the same, 12 inches and 20 fish. Aninformational meeting on the proposed regulation will be held January 31, 2013, at the North Mississippi Fish Hatchery and Visitor Education Center, beginning at 6:30 p.m.
Anyone wishing to comment on the proposed change may do so in writing to the Executive Director, Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks, 1505 Eastover Dr., Jackson, MS 39211, no later than February 16, 2013.

According to what it says on page 2 the rules do apply and Sardis is the only place where the 10" minimum was accepted.
