Seeding a Lake or Pond for fish.
I cannot reply to the OP because I cannot find it, but you all may recall I
sent off an email to Georgia FIsh and Game to see the legality of it. Here is the responce. You don't say if this will take place in public or private waters (such as a private pond or lake). There would certainly be no problem with placing trees for fish attractors into private water bodies provided that the all land owners agree. He may need to get permission before placing any trees or objects into public waters or where they might cause navigation problems. As far as chumming goes, it would be difficult and probably unnecessary to artificially feed fish in order to keep them in an area. Some people do feed fish in smaller ponds in order to get good growth rates. This is usually done with catfish and bream ponds. It would not be an illegal activity in any waters, though, probably just an unnecessary one. If he constructs adequate cover and good "attractor" areas fish might naturally begin to congregate in those areas anyway. Here is a link to fish attractor information: http://warnell.forestry.uga.edu/warn...istory%5B%5D=1 I hope that this helps. Thanks, Ted |
You may recall that I thought (Along with others) that it might be illegal.
Well, I stand corrected, it is not. And not only is it not illegal, its not neccesary. |
