Apple Creek where it crosses 119th  out east of Bismarck.  The land is posted, but I know people fish below thebridge there.</em></strong></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'"><span style="font-size: 10px"></span></span></p><p>Answer from NDGF:</p><p><strong><em><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'"><span style="font-size: 10px">Fishing waterways in the manner you described would most likely not be legal. The property would be considered posted, so any access or use would be considered trespassing or hunting/fishing on posted land. However, it would be up to the landowner to filea complaint, and the warden or other Law Enforcement agency along with the local States Attorney to follow up with a citation and/or charges.</span></span></em></strong></p><p><strong><em><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'"><span style="font-size: 10px"></span></span></em></strong><em><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'"><span style="font-size: 10px"></span></span></em></p><p><em><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'"><span style="font-size: 10px"></span></span></em><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'"><span style="font-size: 10px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'"><span style="font-size: 10px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'"><span style="font-size: 10px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'"><span style="font-size: 10px"></span></span></p><p></p><p></p><p>The response also included the caveat of if you want to know the specifics on access to the given areas, please contact your local game warden.</p></blockquote><p></p>
