Message: <blockquote data-quote="Vollmer" data-source="post: 25803" data-attributes="member: 8014">The North Dakota Game and Fish Department announced today that the state’s 2015 regular paddlefish snagging season will close at 10 p.m. Central Daylight Time, Monday, May 11, to protect the population level of the fish. Snaggers are reminded that Monday is a snag-and-release only day.The 2014-16 fishing proclamation allows for the Game and Fish director to close the snagging season early if it appears more than 1,000 paddlefish will be harvested. In addition, according to Greg Power, Fisheries chief, a record high proportion of the 2015 paddlefish harvest has consisted of mostly females, further necessitating an early season closure.An additional four-day snag-and-release season will begin Tuesday, May 12 and run through Friday, May 15. Paddlefish snaggers with an unused paddlefish tag can continue snagging during the additional snag-and-release season, but must release all fish immediately. Snaggers who already used their tag on a harvested paddlefish are not allowed to participate in the additional snag-and-release period. Snag-and-release is legal only in that area of the Missouri River starting on the north shore from the Confluence boat ramp then east (downstream) one-half mile, and that area of the Missouri River starting on the south shore from the Confluence with the Yellowstone River then east (downstream) one-half mile (both areas will have boundary signs). Paddlefish snagging is allowed only from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. (CDT) during each day of the additional four-day season. The use or possession of a gaff on snag-and-release days is illegal.- See more at: <a href="http://dougleier.areavoices.com/#sthash.7YMshZEY.dpuf" target="_blank">http://dougleier.areavoices.com/#sthash.7YMshZEY.dpuf</a></blockquote>
