Please CONTACT YOUR LEGISLATOR reference Senate Bill 40 2007 Wisconsin Act 20, 2007 Senate Bill 40
ITEM B-5. MUSKELLUNGE FISHING SEASON AND CATCH AND RELEASE BASS
FISHING
Act 20 requires DNR to hold an annual catch and release muskellunge season in the area
comprised of Wisconsin inland waters north of U.S. highway 10 (excluding Wisconsin-Michigan
boundary waters) beginning on the opening day of the general game-fishing season determined
by DNR (generally the first Saturday in May) and concluding the day prior to the day the DNR
established muskellunge fishing season begins. As passed by the Legislature, Senate Bill 40
would specify that no person may use any hooks, baits or lures, other than artificial lures with
barbless hooks while fishing "during" the catch and release muskellunge or bass fishing seasons established by DNR.
