[MikeTLive]

how do you go about getting permit/license/endorsement when you don't already HAVE a commercial license?

Permit required (2)
Regulated surface gillnet endorsement (no permit required for use of surface gillnet less than 250 square feet)

Also at DMF look up closures

thanks - i've had a bear of a time making sense of the regs.

given the square foot size restrictions, would it make sense to use multiple segments with gaps between to provide a greater length?
