Bismarck, (CSi) North Dakota Game & Fish reminds ice anglers to clean up the ice, after fishing.
It is unsightly, and illegal to leave fish behind on the ice.
Game & Fish officials point out it’s common practice for anglers to fillet fish on the ice, but individuals must clean up fish entrails and dispose of them properly. The department also says trash should also be packed.
The fishing proclamation states that when a fish is caught by anglers, it must either be immediately released back into the water unharmed or taken into possession.
