What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is required to

waive the requirements that a person fishing in the waters of this state have a fishing

license and pay the required fee for the license during one designated weekend each

year. This bill requires DNR to designate an additional weekend each year during

which the fishing license and fee requirements are waived. Under the bill, one of the

designated weekends must be in a winter month. As with the fishing weekend

designated under current law, the bill requires DNR to specify by rule to which

inland or outlying waters the waivers apply during the additional designated fishing

weekend.
