    Default Tenny Locks Fishing Refuge

    Went to Tenny locks this week end and the Posted No Fishing Refuge signs
    on land were all gone but the No Fishing Refuge sign they put in the middle of the river was still there. So after standing there scratching my head for several minutes watching all the other anglers fishing I finaly walked back to my car kicking the dirt all the way and left. I called the DNR today and they said it is for sure open to fish there they just have'nt had the time to remove the sign yet.

    It opens with the season opener. Better safe than sorry. That's a hefty fine and loss of liscense.
