TROUT Aug. 1-Oct. 31 Catch-and-release. Selective gear rules, except motors allowed.
Other Game Fish Aug. 1-Oct. 31 Statewide min. size/daily limit. Selective gear rules, except
motors allowed.

Only unscented artifi cial fl ies or lures with
one single-point, barbless hook are allowed.
Up to a total of three artifi cial fl ies or lures
containing single-point, barbless hooks
may be used. Bait is prohibited; fi sh may be
released until the daily limit is retained. Only
knotless nets may be used to land fi sh.
No one may fi sh from any fl oating device

except where specifi cally allowed under
Special Rules for individual waters. (Electric

it should be kept if legal to do so.

Thats the jest of it.....cut and paste strait from the regs.....so much for my net....scented lures and baits with trebles....... Cry

Now I know why I need to move out of this state-The Regs are the most screwed up bunch of laws I have ever been abused by. What Moron wrote that up.

Oh well so much for that idea.

Maybe I should take up golf,

Am I reading this right??  No internal combustion engines after July 31st ???  Wasn't planning on fishing it much anyway.  We made sure to try the lake a few days before the restriction, was ok fishing.
