                          STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
    
                                RS 07878
    
    This bill would create a two fishing pole validation and 
    authorize the Fish and Game Commission to designate the applicable 
    waters and species. On certain waters and using certain fishing 
    techniques, the use of two fishing poles by one angler would not 
    be a threat to the wildlife resources of the state. Anglers who 
    want to utilize two fishing poles in the manner designated by the 
    Commission could acquire the validation for a fee of $7.50.
    
                               FISCAL NOTE
    
    It is unknown exactly how many anglers would avail 
    themselves of this privilege. However, if 20,000 anglers 
    purchase this stamp, then it would raise an additional 
    $150,000.00 for the Fish and Game Fund.
