    New this year is a catch and release season on the lower St. Croix River from St. Croix Falls Dam downstream to the Mississippi River from Oct. 1 through Oct. 15 to allow Wisconsin and Minnesota to have the same regulations for the same species. This is not reflected in the Fishing Regulations 2010-2011.

    Just in from the WDNR:

    Brian:

    The catch and release season runs from Oct 1 thru Oct 15 2010.

    It is not in the fishing regs because it just passed and was not a law at the printing of the regulations.

    Catch and Kill season is Sept 4 thru Sept 30.

    NR 21.04 Sport fishing; seasons and limits. All regulations applicable to sport fishing are as follows unless expressly provided elsewhere in this chapter or the law. (23.11, 29.041)

    Oow, did they have to phrase it as catch and kill?
