    Default Minnow Receipt Not Required Anymore?


    Unless I'm interpreting it wrong, sounds like minnow receipt no longer required if bought from licensed bait store? Let me know if I'm misunderstanding it.

    Here's the quoted text;

    BAIT - Anglers who purchase bait from a commercial bait dealer are no longer required to possess a sales receipt while fishing. All other bait regulations are still in place.

    Here's the link for "new for 2017"

    You are correct. When I bought some minnows last Saturday from Minnesota Bait and Tackle in KC, KS. they said it was not required for them to give me a receipt any more.

    I thought it was silly, along with having to separate fish by anglers in Missouri.

    There's a semi-private pond in Wichita off of MacArthur and I-235 owned by Boeing Employees Association, they checked for my minnow receipt every time I was there. Probably because they wanted me to buy minnows from their tanks. That place had some great fishing 5-7 years agoand as strict as the regulations were (and they were enforced) it has likely only gotten better. I went there for the crappie, as a military member they would allow me to buy a day pass. The daily creel limit was 6 crappie atleast 10", we would regularly catch 60-100 crappie each and leave withour 6 fish between 12"-16" each, we never left without our limit of crappie and only kept a fish under 12" if it was not going to survive. I'm babbling, anyway, glad to hear they lifted that ridiculous rule.
