    Harold Cale You've probably heard by now but they just built a fishing pier up there. Apparently it's pretty good

    What doesn't make sense is that as far as I know right in the other side of the river in Ohio it's illegal to snag anything. It could've changed since I last read it though

    Sanagging a dying salmon is different ,a paddlefish is more on the line of snagging a sturgeon,its a dinosaur and should be left alone or use tags so they don't get overfished which is possible in some areas

    In some areas, snagging for salmon is legal, In some areas its not, its why there are regional laws, just like you cant hunt for deer with high power rifles but in the south you can.

    Paddle fish should not be handled by the gills. There is no bone in them, and you can tear the underlying meat and cartilage. They can actually die from being handled that way. I know, I know, how else you gonna handle them? . . . . carefully
