FYI, a post by Vern Wagner on the Facebook Group, “Minnesotans for an Early Bass Fishing Season”:
Quote:
At tonight’s DNR Bass Workshop they announced that the rule making process has begun to create an early Bass C&R season to coincide with the MN Walleye opener. This rule (Rule 10) also would allow harvest of smallmouth bass north of Hwy 53 after September (season is only C&R now after second week in Sept.) This would allow folks in the BWCA to take a few Smallies for a meal. But it would also apply to Vermilion and other northern lakes. Regulation changes for catfish and sturgeon are in this rule package.
Of great interest to me is that the MN and WI DNR are conferencing on creating matching regulations on the border waters.
