Bill to Allow Culling in State of Wisconsin

Wednesday, March 30, 2011 a very important hearing was held in the Wisconsin State Capitol that impacts the sport of competitive bass fishing. Several different sportsmen's groups attended to testify concerning Assembly Bill AB35. This bill, as written, would permit culling in Bass tournaments in the state of Wisconsin. As all of us anglers know, this is a significant part of competitive bass fishing and tournament bass anglers are largely the only ones following the law due to tournament rules which require them to do so.

For those of who can't wait to act and get rid of the ridiculous and completely unnecessary legislation:

To contact your Wisconsin Senator or Representative, visit http://www.wisconsin.gov/state/core/government.html. Under the Heading 'Legislature' there are email directories for all Senators and Representatives. The anglers of Wisconsin will appreciate all the support they can get!
