macattack678 USN (Ret) Registered: 01/25/05 Posts: 3876 Loc: North Stonington	A buddy of mine originally from Minnesota asked me if CT allows spear fishing though the ice. I couldn't find anything either way? Any thoughts on this? "Good decisions come from experience. Experience comes from bad decisions."

(bb) "Spearing" means the use of any pointed instrument, with or without barbs, which is propelled by hand. The use of spears is prohibited in lakes and ponds and in streams, or sections of streams, stocked with trout, charr and salmon. Spears may be used only for taking carp, suckers, eels and lampreys. In the inland district, fish shall not be taken by underwater spear fishing and the use of any type of spear gun in fishing is prohibited. "Good decisions come from experience.
