§ 117110 Public Fishing Rules Notice

Key Takeaways

  • •The government must put up signs with the rules at public fishing and fun spots.
  • •They also have to print the rules in a local newspaper so everyone knows.
  • •If they say they did this, it’s proof enough that they told everyone the rules.

Example

You go fishing at a lake and see a big sign saying 'No fishing after dark'.

The government put that sign there and also printed the rule in the newspaper, so everyone knows the rule and has to follow it.

The governmental agency shall cause a copy of the rules and regulations to be posted upon the area opened to public fishing and other recreational uses, and it shall cause the rules and regulations to be published at least once in a newspaper of general circulation published in the county in which the reservoir is in whole or in part situated, if there be such a newspaper, otherwise in a newspaper of general circulation published within the area of the governmental agency. The posting and publication shall be sufficient notice to all persons. The affidavit of the secretary, clerk, or corresponding officer of the governmental agency that the rules and regulations have been so posted and published is prima facie evidence thereof. A copy of the rules and regulations, attested by the secretary, clerk, or corresponding officer of the governmental agency shall be prima facie evidence that the rules and regulations have been made by the governmental agency as provided by law.
