Hello Sturgeon Spearing Enthusiasts:
Wisconsin Department of Natural Resource
conservation wardens have received and answered a lot of questions leading up
to this year’s spearing season. Wardens wish to remind sturgeon spearers of the
following often asked questions about regulations regarding tags and
registration.
Spearers are required to be in possession of their
paper license/ tags while spearing. Immediately upon harvest, successful
spearers must validate their tags by removing the validation stub from their
tag by cutting or tearing at the dotted line. The sturgeon carcass tag is only
required to be attached to the sturgeon if the successful spearer leaves the
sturgeon prior to registration. It is also illegal to possess more than one
sturgeon carcass tag or the tag of another while spearing.
In person registration is still required.
Successful spearers have until 2:00PM the day of harvest to register their
sturgeon. There is no online or call in registration for lake sturgeon.
