The email I have been waiting for is here! Well a few of them are here. Last year there were many Co's that stated the artificial rig was legal, yet I was never able to get it in a hard copy of some sorts. Finally it is here!
GNT FOLLOWS ALL FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL LAWS, in saying this, drop shot as it was originally done is unlawful and will not be tolerated in any of our events. However, the ARTIFICIAL RIG IS LEGAL! The description of an artificial rig is as follows: Any lure that falls into the State of Michigans Department of Natural Resources Common Terms catagory pretaining to artificial lures tied at the bottom, then with a hook tied directly to the line above it and baited with the same Common Terms in the catogory of artificial lures it a lawful way to fish.
This is as of 8:30 p.m. Thurs. this may change as I know I will get a couple more emails. I will post their response as soon as I get all the bugs worked out of my computer.
