ICE FISHING CODE OF ETHICS
Using Your Vehicle…
Use common sense and respect, drive with care, consider your safety and others
Watch your speed, go slow – impose your own speed limit
If your vehicle leaks oil and fuel, keep it off the ice!
Fishing Practices…
Dumping fish waste down the hole is against the law – bring it out with you
Use barbless hooks and do not release live bait
Fish for species other than walleye, if releasing, put it back promptly
Fish for yourself, take only what you need
Garbage, Waste and Water Quality…
Bring an extra pail if you need a toilet
Do not leave your garbage out on the ice, bring it back!
Don't pour dirty water back in the lake – zero tolerance for anything in the holes
