Anglers in North Dakota should be aware of regulations regarding packaging and transporting of fish.
"Too often anglers are just freezing a bunch of fish together instead of packaging each fish individually," said Robert Timian, chief of enforcement for the North Dakota Game and Fish Department.
North Dakota fishing regulations state that any dressed fish to be transported, if frozen, must be packaged individually. Two fillets are counted as one fish.
"There is a need to be able to reasonably count the number of fish," Timian said, "and if they are all frozen into one large block, it cannot be done. When we have to take the frozen block and thaw it, it is not very convenient for the angler or the warden."
