Number of fishing rods

[deepwater88]

Can anyone tell me if it is legal to use 2 fishing rods per person shore fishing?
(i.e One rod with a pickerel rig in a rod holder and one rod for casting)
Much appreciated.

nope not allowed unless it specifically says it in the regs for that particular body of water. ice fishing is the only time you can use two rods

You should read the first few pages of the regulations. This is covered in there.

Fair to ask questions if unsure but this one is pretty straightforward. Not allowed and I'd definitely pick up a reg book before you start getting tickets for not knowing, their free and always handy to have

I believe people who are licenced for sturgeon research angling can use two rods during open water.

People who are licenced fire surgeon research fishing are more than likely well versed on the regulations.

But perhaps not the ones watching said research fisherman. I would suspect very few Alberta fishermen are aware about the research licence and might want to ask someone more knowledgeable for clarification.

Depends where and the body of water. As mentioned check the regs. 99% of all questions can be answered there.

Good point. Never thought of that.
