Really? We saw people using similar devices (nor'easters) at wachusett. Bigpick - can you point me to rule? EP had no problem with it cuz we only fished two lines and attended gear.
Section 53. A person shall not fish with floats, otherwise known as toggle fishing, in any inland water of the commonwealth. For the purposes of this section, a ''float'' shall mean any device floating with a line and hook attached, baited with natural or artificial bait and not under the direct control of the hand of the person fishing.
granted this was maine but I saw this on north woods law once. they were drifting one down a river in some tournament and they said because no one was in "direct control" of the line that it was illegal.we've always joked of trying this but never did, looked like fun. nice job making the best of this winter anyways!
While traps are set on the ice nobody is in control of the device until the person touches it. The same thing with a fishing rod when on a rod holder shore fishing
