Movement to allow two lines per angler in MN
This is an online petition to get comments/suggestions on how the Minnesota angler would feel about this law change. Thanks for your comments. continue reading »
"Please allow two lines per licensed fisherman. There is no way this will have an affect on the fishery if a person is a law abiding citizen who adheres to the limits set by the state. "
"I don't realy see a problem with two lines "
"I think adding a second line is a great idea. Im all for it. I fish many states where there multiple lines are allowed. and it seems to work just fine. My vote is yea"
"I'm for it."
"Lets please pass this and catch up to the states around us. The limit is still the same just more fun catching them."
"2 Rods, Yes Please!"
"In Favor"
"I think this is a great idea, and will help continue to improve our fishing and tourism in Minnesota."
"Two lines year round would be a good idea."
"I support fishing with two lines in the summer!"
"I Support the 2 lines, with the $10.00 stamp to allow use of a second line, great way to raise some extra money and bring our rules into line with surrounding states, Thanks, Matt"
"I strongly support this bill!!!"
"I think this would be fantastic. South Dakota lets you use 2 lines all year long and has phenominal fishing which is why I fish SD about 75% of my time on the water."
"Please consider allowing anglers to use two (2) lines"
"I'm in favor. There's no scientific evidence that populations will be impacted by this change. The number of fish any fisherman reduces to possession is his choice, irregardless of the number of lines being used. Plus, I think it'll get more people on "
"I support this bill 100% there is no reason for this not to pass"
"I am against using 2 lines in the open water season. Plain and simple, the more lines you put in the water, the more fish that will be harvested either inteniinally or by delayed mortality after release. I have not heard any good reasons on why we shoul"
"It's already allowed during the ice fishing season, so I don't see any issues with allowing two lines in the summer as well. "
"Also in favor of reduced bag limits and added slots to coincide. "
"I think two lines should be allowed in Minnesota. I can use two in the winter. Why not in the summer. "
