http://dnr.wi.gov/org/nrboard/congre...re%20FINAL.pdf
Of interest to us Chippewa Flowage fisherman;
Question #27- Allowing motor trolling
Questions#29, and #30- They deal with the ice fishing regulation and panfish regulations now in force.
Question#45- This seeks to raise the min. size on Walleyes to 18" with a bag of three, and to remove the min. size limit on both Large mouth and Small mouth Bass.
Question#56- this deals with removing a fish refuge now in place.
Questions- #89, and #90-Moving Sawyer county to the Southern Bass managment zone, and seperating Large, and Small mouth Bass for regulation purposes.
Question #95- Managing Crappies seperate from other panfish species in Northern Wisconsin.
One more question that should get everyones support is #82. It deals with making the head of the DNR chosen by the NRB, not the Gov. So take a gander at the questions. They have complete explainations of why they are on the docket. Than come back and make a comment or express your opinion. Then go to the Spring hearings on April 12th to let your voice be heard.

#29- Allowing ice fishing for game fish except musky and Walleye. Sawyer co. -"YES"- rest of state- yes.
