There is none Christian, in MA. there has been a moratorium for some time, unless you already hold one from years back. In the other new england states I'm unaware of their regulations.
Regards, Monty.

I owe you one.....  |
It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Goose, I would only be setting the net targeting a concentrated school. I would not be leaving the net to fish for any period of longer than maybe a half hour. |

Christian,
Email or call the DMF for the application. It is not easy to find but it is attainable. There is NOT a mortorium on gillnets over 200sq ft for the purpose of obtaining non commercial bait. It is just another $30 Tax!
You may want to look into a nice cast net too. A Calusa. A little coin but if you get good at it it is easy than a gill net especially if your fishing alone a gillnet can s*ck. No I don't have a throw net yet but am thinking of it, just takes some practice.

Seriously, you can get one of the larger throw nets if the regs discourage the use of a gill net. A friend of mne does quite well with a heavy throw net provided the schools are fairly dense and you're less than 15' of water.

Christian, I apologize for the bad advice,Beamie is 100% correct. I remember a friend of mine trying to obtain one years ago and that was the story he gave me.  |
