Location: Wayzata, MN | Less than 2 weeks until the MN opener - this Saturday if you are going to fish MN/WI border waters!
I was looking through the Regs today (don't ask why) and I came across this little blurb....
"Suckers larger than 12" may only be transported alive in containers that are NOT A LIVEWELL or other part of the boat and if bought from a licensed facility. Person MUST have a valid receipt from the facility ON THEIR PERSON." (the emphasis is mine).
That's a change to the regs from last year - so if you are going to fish live bait, be aware of this change. The way I read it, the suckers need to be in a bucket or plastic bag until you get to the lake (and not in your livewell), and you absolutely need to have the receipt on your person.
Just trying to save you all the headache from the DNR and a ticket...
Good luck out there - tight lines. |
