Confiscation of nets and fish traps on Wabash River border
About 100 nets and traps were seized over two weeks along the Wabash River border between Illinois and Indiana. Owners lacked licenses, so the gear was destroyed. Indiana law requires tagged licenses on all nets and traps within one mile of the river, with commercial licenses issued by the state fish and game division at the Statehouse.
