Not until this year. There was a law on the books that said we couldn't tie
directly onto a main line, we had to have a 3' tag line for a hook.
Something to do with the old Salmon snagging laws.

At last us guys up here in Michigan can get some spring bass fishing in
without looking over our shoulders. We have a new catch and release
season starting on sat. until the regular season opens memorial day
weekend. I cant wait, I know this will be fun for me.
