well wrote ketchn. I'm in the boat that says if it's legal who am I to judge.
Now I generally have 1 or 2 poles with me. Minners on at least one of them(again generally speaking). The second is usually rigged with a jig when I go to move and trolled behind. And Retied with a minner or just throw the jig under a float when j get to my area to fish. No electronics for me.
I also fish private ponds as well as public.
