Alabama Regs

Featured Replies

Been doing some research online but struggling to find the info I am looking for.

 

Trying to figure out Alabama’s regulations regarding the A rig. How many baits can you have on the rig and of those how many can have a hook? Wanting to make sure I understand the state law clearly. Also if anyone has a good link to a proclamation I would take that as well. I have looked online at there state game and fish site and not sure if I found the proc or not. Thanks in advance for your help.

According to this site - you can have 5 hooks in Alabama, unlimited in Virginia. Number of baits isn't specified. This is as of a year ago...so maybe call the DNR/DFW/whatever to be sure.

FWIW: Minnesota we can have 5 baits, but only one hook...so an A-Rig isn't in my repertoire.

Yea, I’m sure my tournament rules will be more prohibitive than state laws but just want to make sure. 
 

Don’t need a Poche incident or hell a walleye like day either!!

No limit on the number of hooks, about the only thing you can't do is shoot them, oh the irony...

Haha @TnRiver46 and @Deleted account exactly why I was asking on here. Sounds like it will be the BFL rules that are more restrictive. 
 

Yea I was a little confused and knowing how mlf has failed to local regs I wanted to do some digging
