3 lines per fisher. 6 hooks maximum. you can have 2 hooks per rod or all 6 hooks (Like a sibiki rig) on one rod.
Is this correct in Michigan waters? I know the 3 lines per fisherman is correct and I know the 2 hooks per line is correct. I was unaware that you could place 6 hooks on 1 line in michigan waters.
Ok, this is a direct cut & paste from the guide book -
Hook and Line Fishing: Fish so taken must be hooked in the mouth. Fish not hooked in the mouth must be returned to the water immediately. No more than three lines per person (including tip-ups) nor more than six hooks or lures may be used. All hooks attached to an artificial bait or "night crawler harness" are counted as one hook. Hooks must be baited or attached to an artificial bait. You may use any number of hooks on one line for taking smelt in recognized smelt waters. Tip-ups and similar devices used for ice fishing must show the angler's name and address. All lines must be under immediate control. Hook size regulations exist on certain streams (see Exceptions to General Regulations by County, p. 16-18 of the 2010 fishing guide). I learned something new today
