Thread: Spider rigging

I rarely, if ever use more than one rod at a time. None of my rods are labeled and my favorite rod was new in 1980, I replaced it's cork handle in 1984 with an electrically heated handle for winter fishing. That handle quit working a couple of years later but here in 2016 I still use the rod. If the DOC catches me will they take rod and my Fishing license?

On second thought, I don't have a fishing license...

No, you can use up to 3 unlabeled poles at one time, and up to 3 Hooks on each line. I wouldn't think a game warden would take your equipment, even if you were using more than 3 unlabeled poles at once, if that was the only law you were in violation of. Unless you were giving said warden a bunch of grief, then who knows what might happen. Lol personally, I have never had a bad experience with a game warden. I show them some respect and they return the favor.
