TOPIC:

I cant tell from their DNR site. What do i need to buy so I don't break the law trolling in Illinois portion of the lake?

are you getting annual or 1 day?

If one day I think your all good - I believe the 1-days cover all.

If annual, then you need to get the lake mich salmon stamp as well.

I thought the 1 day included salmon stamp, but it says i have to pay an extra $6.50 to fish for salmon....might as well get the annual.

Thank you for the reply


Edit: The way their regs are written, it seems like you only need the stamp if you buy the one day license. I'll be spending the $6.50 to be safe, but it would be nice if a guy didn't have to worry about interpretation of licensing just to go fishing....

From the Illinois DNR fishinig info PDF:
Non-resident sport fishing 24-hour license . . $10.50
(does not include salmon or trout fishing privileges)
Non-resident sport fishing (3 days). . . . . . $15.50
Non-resident sport fishing (annual). . . . . . $31.50

If the fish stay in that area for most of the summer like they did last year, you might want to consider the annual. I believe it was $39.95

I agree with Bob - just get the annual. You will use it.

I got the annual with the stamp. Thank you for the advice.
