For all you spider riggers, check out page 100 in the new fishing/hunting rule book. Then call your warden and get him to explain it. We are still hashing it out over on the other fourm.

Haven't seen it. Could you post it?
On page 100, top left of the page, it states (and I quote)
"Using more than two poles is prohibited on community fishing lakes not within state parks."
There is a list of community lakes and Conroe is one of them. Was advised to call local game warden and get his take on the new rule. I could be reading something into it that is not there.....problem of mine. Anyway...
To answer the other questions, there are only really 4 forums (fishing) that I hang out in. The one I was talking about,,,and your a member Skip, is Texas Best Fishing.com. There are a lot of great people over there to learn from. The others are this one, and 2 saltwater forums from florida........which is where we will head after Nov 1. That is where our winter place is. The life of a traveler ya know.

CAPMEL?(one of the saltwater ones?)
You betcha.
Are you saying 2 rods are you allowed on most state reservoirs? I can see in the near future that happening in a lot of states. I think Lake Weiss in Alabama is now 3 poles. I can live with that. I guess I can live with what ever the law says.
I'm pretty sure that means bank fishing in community ponds because they were being fished out. I called TPWD like a month or two ago and asked them about spider rigging here and they said you can have up to 100 hooks out. After that you have to have a commercial fishing license. If I remember correctly, they took a pole on the TPWD site, and that was one of the questions they asked.
I'll still have to call the warden on Conroe, cuz Conroe is listed as a community lake. It also stated "Lake", not Ponds. BUT if it is within a park, you can have as many as you want??? Or at least that is the way it reads. "Community lakes Not within State Parks"
OK, OK, got the up to date info. If I had just delved futher into the book. Made a couple of calls and finally someone told me to look in the front of the book and it states that "Community lake is a lake under 75 acres and so on and so forth." So , guess on the big lakes we do not have to worry about it.
