I certainly hope not! If that is the case I will be breaking the law quite frequently. I bring my left over minnows home after every trip and put them back in my tank here at the house. At $3 a dozen I don't plan on donating them to the lake after each trip!
Good question.
In the May/June edition of the KW&P magazine that discusses the new live bait laws and gives example scenarios of different aspects of the new laws. It also gives the background information on how regulations were developed. It helped clarify a few questions I had. I recommend reading the article if you can get a copy.
If you are fishing at an ANS body of water all fish must be dead before you leave including bait fish. That is what the above article says. The bait fish industry must have a good lobbyist to get that passed. Someone made a big payment.
I think I will quit fishing and start knitting there is no government involved in knit one pearl two.
If you fish in ANS waters all fish must be dead when you leave including bait fish.
That was supposed to say, "If that is the case I HAVE BEEN breaking the law quite frequently" I was trying to listen to my 5 year old and type at the same time and wasnt paying attention to what I had typed.Quote:
