Darkhouse Spearfishing Holes Must be Marked - FishNews - 04-15-2008
Anglers are reminded that holes left in the ice after darkhouse spearfishing must be marked with a natural object visible from a minimum of 150 feet.
Paul Freeman, district warden supervisor for the North Dakota Game and Fish Department, Devils Lake, said a vehicle went through an unmarked spearfishing hole on Devils Lake over the weekend.
"A darkhouse spearfishing hole may only have a thin sheet of ice covering it the following day," Freeman said. "A well marked hole with a tree branch or tumbleweed is very important in preventing such an accident."
North Dakota's darkhouse spearfishing season closes Feb. 29.
