I just wanted to get your post back to the top since no-one replied to it. Anyway, we can only fish with two poles here in Illinois. I wonder what the limit in other states is? Seems in AR and TN there is a much higher limit on the number of rods one fisherman can use, but I'm not sure?
Also, I don't really do night fishing, although I'd like to, so I can't give you any advise on that.
