Shad introduction once destroyed McNeely lake, and using shad as bait is prohibited... but that doesnt mean the whole state should be banned from using shad as bait...

This law like most laws should be left up to the states to enforce. 10th ammendment... that is all...
WRONG! 6% of Loon mortality is from Lead Poisoning.
