Re: Proposed Rule Changes for Cold Water Species

Liza Poinier
Hi folks,

Liza here from F&G. Thanks for the very civil conversation and your ideas on how to improve the salmon fishery!

Since it's not been made totally clear, the "proposals" that went to the F&G commission were not the final proposals - they were concepts brought to the meeting for further discussion and input from the commissioners. At this point, the proposal ideas are still in draft form. When final text for the initial proposals are ready, they will then go through a rigorous public process, which includes a public hearing and comment period.

Then, after consideration of comments heard during this early drafting stage for rules, we'll be able to tell you more. Please rest assured that the 2-line restriction is NOT under consideration.

As more information becomes available and the initial proposal is developed, public hearing and comment period dates are set we will post it on the F&G website and I'll try to remember to put links here as well. It's my understanding that our fisheries chief, Steve Perry, will be at the fishlakewinni.com gathering on Sunday to answer questions.

Best regards,
Liza Poinier

Thank you for the update Liza!!!

Re: Proposed Rule Changes for Cold Water Species

All this concern about 2 lines per boat. Talk about going off half cocked.
Well maybe it was not all in vain. Maybe F&G got some insight as to our concerns and saw some good recommendations from our group.

Re: Proposed Rule Changes for Cold Water Species

Thanks to checking in with us here Liza. It's also great that Steve is coming to the Gathering.

There were some ideas proposed here on this forum that might also merit consideration from F&G when reviewing proposals.

Thanks for the thanks :)

Your insights are indeed appreciated. No doubt that the next round of proposals will benefit from this good conversation.

Re: Proposed Rule Changes for Cold Water Species

Liza,
I must say I'm impressed that F&G is keeping an ear open to concerned anglers and replying on this site. Any thoughts on a trophy brown trout fishery being established here in NH?(see previous posts) Thanks again for your reply.
