Looks like people beat us to it!

Unfortunately whoever you spoke to at F&W was wrong. Seeleys is closed to all angling until 8:00AM on opening day. No C&R, simply no fishing period.

If you called the Trenton number, I hate to say it but alot of the folks there are just office staff who don't really know the regs and as such should not be dispensing info that could potentially get someone ticketed.

If you don't have a local CO's number your next best option is to call the Operation Game Thief number which is 855-648-8477.
