SB 350 - Hand fishing for catfish and carp during the months of June and July shall be allowable in the same waterways in the state where hook-and-line fishing for such fish is allowable. No more than five catfish may be taken annually via hand fishing. Persons taking catfish by hand must submit a report to the Department of Conservation within 10 days of the close of the hand fishing season. The act lists other requirements for hand fishing. A violation of the act is a class A misdemeanor. The act is similar to the perfected SB 1107 (2006). ERIKA JAQUES
