Guest Report post Posted April 22, 2005 Here in Michigan it's illegal to target any species that is not in season. Kinda hard to explain that one is fishing for 'gills with a 4" bait There are a few lakes that are open for an early C&R bass season, prior to the statewide opener As far as private vs. public waters, all rules and seasons apply unless it's an established fish farm. Much like Game Preserves. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's just downright dumbfounding sometimes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kid Tier 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2005 Just checked the with the dnr. It would be okay for me to target bass or pike if i owned the entire shore line, but there are other houses on the lake so the rules must be followed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
