There are times when an extra line would be nice. I do not agree with the state adding on an extra fee for the added line. If this were to pass, I will be purchasing the extra line license.

For summer fishin', I'm in. I usually only fish one line in the winter crazy !! It has always seemed backwards to me.
Even when I've been on Big Stone(border lake) we only fish one. It's just one of them things that a guy is not prepared for.

alot of extra fish kill is going to occur. assuming you are still fishing with one and casting with the other. the extra time is going to lead to alot more hook swallows and fish that arent going to be able to released.

i have a hard enough time with one in the spring summer with the fish getting aggressive.

do we really want legislation thats allowed in NoDak and Wisconsin?

not totally opposed, but i will never use it

I will use it for catfishing and maybe trolling. Bobber fishing I wont use it as you state the hook could get buried. For panfish, I won't use it agagin as those pannies bite to fast and one would probably miss more with two lines.

There would only be a few times it would work for me and it would work well.

I would rarely, rarely use 2 lines. The only situation I can think of doing that is trolling raps. It would come in real handy to use 2 lines trolling raps. Would allow a guy to fish 2 different colors, styles, depths, sizes, etc.

Beyond that, I'll only use 1 line regardless if I can use 2.

Bottom line for me....I'm impartial to using 1 or 2 lines.

I would be all for it.Last night watching that bobber sit there for a few hours not going down,Then having to see my other poles with crank baits made me think 2 lines would be a good deal.

Then we could be just like the other 49 states. I guess there is 1 or 2 other states that have a one line limit.

Heck yea! I'm for it, two lines on boards and two flat lines. Two people could could find the right color in half the time. Then again you will need twice as many crankbaits. Plus you would need a fishing partner who is willing to fish as a team! One to tend lines and the other to handle the boat. Sounds like fun if you can get it right.

Why can't we just use 2 lines? I'm not paying an additional fee to do it.

How about a 4 fish walleye limit and 2 lines and no fee...

It is fun.

I'm not really happy that they attached a $5 fee for it, but what can you do in this state without a fee?

I can't wait until next year if it makes it through the legislature next week.

I pesonally am not corinated enough to fish 2 lines I do believe a person should be able to.I fish the St.Croix and you can there, with a Minnesota Liscens.On ocasion I do .Its nice to have the option to do so. But to pay extra it is not right.Just another user fee (tax}.Thakyou Guv for introducing the user fee to us Minnesotans,not.
