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 »
"I would really like to see this pass, as it is something that has really bothered me. Every other state surrounding us allows multiple lines and its crazy that we do not. It won't affect the poplutations negatively as we DO allow it in winter and there is"
"I strongly support allowing two line per angler in Minnesota. I would even support a small additional fee for the extra line priveledge.....or no fee for those who agree to only practice catch and release. "
"Fully support it. It would bring us "up to speed" with neighboring states that allow 2 rods. More of us would stay on MN waters and would likely increase sales of out of state liscenses. It would not effect the number of fish I keep, as I usually release "
"With Expense's looming higher for recreation, let us make the most of out fishing experience, using 2 lines per licsenced fisher person only makes for a good time."
"I believe this will be a good change to the fishing regulations"
"I strongly support this legislation and arguments against it are proven wrong over and over in states that allow two lines. The possitive reasons for support of the bill are too numerous to list. Hans"
"2 Lines year around!"
"I am for allowing two lines year around."
"Please allow the two lines bill to pass. Would even be willing to purchase a "walleye stamp" to do so. At 5 or 10 dollars for the stamp, this would be beneficial to the fisheries programs. Thank you."
"I support this amendment and believe it brings our regulations in line with those by eneighboring states and existing regulations on the states's border waters."
"It will help a lot to have 2 lines for showing kids the outdoors. River fishing from shore it will be very helpful."
"WAY, WAY past due!!"
"I wouldn't mind seeing this rule allowed. As long as a person follows the limit regulations, what harm could possibly come from it? Also, being as we are allowed two lines during the "ice" season, why should open water season be any different?"
"In favor-good change"
"I would like to see this bill passed"
"I support the use of two fishing lines per angler during the open water season in Minnesota. Vote yes. "
"If we can have 2 lines in the winter why not in the summer. Only makes sense to me. Most people would only use one anyway but atleast you have the option to try diff. lures at the same time. A limit is a limit and if there biting or not I don't think it w"
"I support the 2 line rule change proposed"
"I support allowing two lines for open water fishign in MN."
