Location: Rhinelander, WI | Does anyone have the exact wording of the single hook sucker rig ban from Illinois? Is this actually law there and how is it working?
Thanks

| I do believe it is any bait over 6" must be rigged on a quick strike. |

| from page 10 of:
http://dnr.state.il.us/fish/Digest/index.htm
which says:
45) When using live bait, all live bait in excess of 8 inches in total
length shall be rigged with a quick set rig. The hook shall be
immediately set upon the strike. A quick set rig is defined as follows:
a live bait rig with up to 2 treble hooks attached anywhere
on the live bait, single hooks prohibited. This rule does not
apply to trotlines, jug lines, etc., if allowed on the lake. |
