I was with Agent Post and our supervisor when this was discussed and I am glad it was brought up again. In re-reading my response to the initial question I see where there may have been confusion....

Whoever is fishing those jugs/lines/traps must have THEIR name* plainly labeled on the equipment. So if your friend is harvesting the fish, his name must be on the equipment. Keep in mind that all...

This is a great question and one I lookedinto and got second opinions on. What we all came up with is that in THIS instance,the use of a laser to bowfish is similar to using a boat mounted light...

You read correctly, fishermen/hunters/trappers must always keep their fish/game separate or identifiable. This enables the accurate identification of the taker’s specific wildlife during inspection....

Redear sunfish are not “game fish” in Missouri and therefore are in the “other fish” category. As the rule below states, Redear sunfish can be used as bait. Number 2 (#2) of this rule, which I left...

There are several parts of the Wildlife Code of Missouri to be considered here. I included a lot of code (and left a lot out) because I needed to in order to give you the full story. What it boils...

It is your responsibility to ensure that the information is up to date when you purchase permits and to inspect the permit(s) prior to walking out of the store. The store should always verify your...

Let me clear up the confusion on this one…

It’s wordy, but the definition of waters of the state should help here…

3CSR 10-20.805(58) WATERS OF THE STATE: All rivers, streams, lakes, and...

As stated in above responses, in that situation you would be legal catching 15 crappie at Truman (which is Truman’s daily lake limit) and then that same day catching 15 crappie from LOZ (which is...

The tape is provided free of charge as a convenience to anglers. It is not intended as a “true” measure and the quality control on the product is not what you would expect from a solid tape purchased...

Rich,

I would contact the DOR. The Missouri Form 798 is a DOR document for Boat/vessel or outboard motor addidavit of ownership and inspection. The form specifies that contact should be made...

Rich,

What was the inspection for (i.e. safety, equipment, zebra mussels, etc.) ? Also, do you know who completed the inspection? The answer to your question depends on what the inspection was for...

I have recently answered questions for the following threads:

1. Online Permits
2. Hand Fishing for Cats
3. Concealed Weapons
4. Tournament Culling

Sorry for the delay in answering a few of...

The shift to an online permit purchasing system was made in order to make permit buying easier for resource users. There have been several questions like this posed throughout the process. It is my...

There are several considerations here that are reflected in the Code that prohibits “hand fishing”. First off, what is good for one state may not be good for another regardless of their shared...

I apologize for taking so long in responding to this question. I wanted to speak with some of the other entities and agencies involved with enforcing weapons and vehicles (your boat in this case)....

I see this has received some discussion and has some good responses. Here is some additional info and the regulation(s) behind what has been said.

The Code states that [3CSR 10-6.405 (3)(A)] “Any...

I hope I didn’t scare anyone too bad – certainly not my intention. To shed some light on the subject of target shooting on Corps ground I will say this. It has always been my understanding that...

I agree with everyone here that says the pigs need to be out of our woods. They do a lot of damage to crop, wildlife, and property. The Conservation Department discourages anyone from hunting...

Although that is a very good-looking fish attractor and would most likely provide great habitat for fish, local conservation oriented groups (MDC, USACE, Etc.) that manage lakes work hard to maintain...

It may be helpful to interpret the regulations in pieces. For instance, (1) the methods allowed for an area are the methods, regardless of season. (2) The season being hunted has specific methods...

The Wildlife Code of Missouri states:
3 CSR 10-10.768 Sales and Possession of Wildlife Parts and Mounted Specimens

(3) Any person who finds a dead deer with antlers still attached to the skull...

The Lake is managed by the US Army Corps of Engineers and this question would be best answered by them. However, sinking brush or anything else in Smithville Lake is prohibited. As with all (?most?)...

Guys, I put the Code up so that you are provided with the regulation in its truest form. My hope is that by doing so I can help clarify questions and not further confuse anyone. I’m more than happy...

This is not a complete reprint of the code, but should contain info that helps to answer your questions…

The taker and/or possessor of any wildlife...

As usual there are some great points already listed here; hopefully though I can add a little bit and continue to clarify the Code for you all.


Under 3CSR 10-6.410 (2A) Number of poles and...

Great question, and I already see a great answer. To reiterate: A nonresident who is a registered student attending a public or private secondary, post-secondary, or vocational school located in this...
