Breaking News: New Alabama Rig Rules in Indiana
This is for anyone that lives or fishes in Indiana.
The “Alabama Rig” question is now answered with this Emergency DNR rule effective this Saturday, February 25th, 2012:
An individual may take fish with not more than three (3) poles, handlines, or tip-ups at a time. Except as provided in 312 IAC 9-7-2 (k), an individual must affix to one line not more than:
1. (2) hooks;
2. (2) harnesses for use with live bait
3. (2) artificial baits
4. (1) rig or lure array for use with multiple artificial baits with not more than (5) hooks.[/B]
This temporary amendment expires January 1, 2013.
So does this mean that 5 hooks can be used in Indiana with the Rig ?
