Electrofishing?!?!?!

[DJD]

Well, I guess it depends on the state. Here in KY, most, if not all, fishing regs apply to private as well as public waters. For instance, if you have a pond in your back yard and invite me to fish there, by law I'd have to have a license, and I doubt it would be legal for either of us to electrofish. Maybe I'm wrong. But anyway, I don't think this joker owns a pond. He seems like one of the trolls inhabiting this board, and we probably shouldn't be giving him the time of day. So I'll stop feeding him

Don't get me wrong I wouldn't do it nor do I think much of it but he states he has permission to do this on that private pond. As a sportfisherman who rarely keeps fish to eat (I do but not Largemouth, Smallmouth or Ky bass) it just seems to easy and takes the fun out of it. JMO

Not 100% sure about Florida but I suspect that it is illegal on private land down there regardless of whether he has permission. Otherwise, DFWR would only be able to inforce violations on public land. I seriously doubt that to be the case. Hook them up and flip the switch!
