Location: Hudson,WI | Anybody see the article in the Star Tribune about Mille Lacs? They say that Night fishing for Muskies will be allowed, but yet in the article it says an extended night fishing ban will be in effect from the Monday after opener until Dec 1st. How does that allow for night fishing of muskies?

Location: Minneapolis, MN | From the Article:"There will be two exceptions to the night fishing ban this year for muskie and bow fishing. Beginning Monday, June 8, muskie anglers may fish at night with artificial lures longer than 8 inches or sucker minnows longer than 8 inches. Bow fishing for rough fish only also will be allowed at night beginning June 8 provided no angling equipment is in a boat.
“Night muskie fishing and bow fishing for rough fish are popular on Mille Lacs,” Pereira said. “Last year, all boats had to be off the water at night. This year, we’ave listened to stakeholders and adjusted the regulations to accommodate night fishing methods that are expected to have no impact on the walleye we’re trying to protect.”" | |
