Sorry if you guys have flogged this one to death before…I’m relatively new to this site.

Jon, I did read the MN regs & this is where my confusion started. I’ll be staying at my mom’s house in Lake City. I was born in MN, but I doubt that matters much anymore as I left a long, long time ago. I can see the the logic in a MN DNR person checking me on the MN side, but the language in the regs (MN I think) I read said ‘when in doubt follow the regs where your license originates’, which is WI where I think(on the river) is 2 rods/baits, 6 walleye over 15″, & 12 fish in possession. So when a warden checks me in MN & I pull out my WI license I’m busted? If so, this really is screwed up. I’m legal to fish the river with either license, but if I don’t go back to WI by the most direct route right away(and actually spend the night in MN) then I need a MN license? Trust me, MN will get a whole lot more money from me if I eat in MN pubs, buy their bait & tackle, & fuel up locally. Not real sure if I’ve made any progress here.
