That Includes Fort Peck, Hell Creek
Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks is seeking public comment on fishing contests proposed for the winter season of 2013-14.
Participants must comply with state fishing regulations, including daily and possession limits. Most contests require catch-and-release fishing and participants in these contests may not keep any fish.
Applications for contests may be approved, denied, or approved with conditions. Conditions placed on contests may help to minimize fish mortality, regulate harvest, reduce user conflicts, or require additional access site maintenance when needed.
Information on the proposed derbies can be obtained by contacting FWP at 406-444-2449, or by email: [email protected].
Comments are due by Aug. 21. Send comments to: FWP-Fisheries Bureau, Attn: Public Comment on Fishing Derbies, Box 200701, Helena, MT 59620-0701, or email them to: [email protected].
