Hey folks. So I since the wording in the law is as clear as mud and Mr. Green Jeans is sneaky. I spoke with my GA DNR buddy. I asked about license requirements for Lake Russell. While fishing on a boat or kayak on the water of any state boundary lake either states fishing license will be accepted. HOWEVER!!!! If you fish from the bank. You will have to have that states fishing license. So for me I have a GA license. I will not be able to make a cast from a SC side boat ramp without a SC license. Hope this helps... In GA this applies to the TN, AL, FL, NC, and SC lakes. Knowing how sneaky they can be I would imagine they will be out and about with the waterways since the "season" is kicking off. (Jkjkjk nothing but love for them.)
I was gonna cover this in my roundtable but I figured this was something that needed to be told prior to. I will cover some of the "Violatiors Compact" in my roundtable. These are states that will suspend your privileges based on the outcome of the violation state's case.
Can't wait to get this party started.
Co-angler: The boater is not a guide. He’s fishing his tournament and you are fishing yours. Try not to complain about where you’re fishing or your not catching any fish. As a co. We have to learn to fish in any situation, but I think it’ll make you a better fisherman! Also you paid your money to fish so don’t let him bully you! 1: when you get the text the night before you’ll get your boaters name and number, and your take off number. When you call him don’t chit chat to much. I ask when where, if we are fishing deep or shallow. Also find out what color his rig is so you can find him the next morning. 2: if you don’t feel comfortable backing the boat in the water let your boater know, if he has a problem with that it’s his problem. If you are good backing it in then do it. 3: when you are getting things ready there’s not really a rule of how many rods you bring but from experience if you bring over five rods it gets to be a pain in the rear keeping them untangled and in order, and you get one compartment in there boat don’t bring a bunch of tackle bags and lunchboxes. Try to bring everything you need in one bag and if it’s to big to go in his compartment then you’ll be holding it while your flying down the lake jumping wake’s. Most tackle bags will fit in them just be careful about bringing a duffel bag. 4: respect his boat. Do your best to clean your shoes. And try to keep your equipment organized. 5: Don’t get discouraged when fishing in the back of the boat. You can’t make your cast in front of the console all your casting needs to be the back half of the boat. And the boater is going to position the boat best for him. I have some more I’ll add. I had a emergency and had to drive back to Arkansas. I’ll add what we talked about in the round table. BRING YOUR OWN LIFE JACKET
