How Many Rod n Reels at Texoma Texas Side ? - 02/16/16 10:36 PM

Hi Fellow Anglers,

Can someone clarify how many rod and reels I can have in the water banking? Someone said I was allowed only 5 in the water per person? I though I could have 100 hooks in the water at once but did that changed? This person claimed he was ticketed for having 6 rod and reels in the water. Law allowed 5 only. I wasn't aware of this as I always put more then 5 in the water. Again this question is applying on Texas side. Thank you

There is no limit on the amount of rods you can have. Only the amount of hooks allowed per line is in the regs.

The 2 rod per person rule only applies in community fishing lakes and ponds, and in some state parks. Otherwise the maximum hook rule applies.

Makes sense as i remember seeing it posted when i was younger at mineral wells sp. Ive just always just used max of 2 rods but good to know i didnt find it anywhere in outdoor annual either.
