Today is the day ....... one of two free fishing days .... offered by NH Fish & Game ..... Saturday, January 19, 2019 ..... and Saturday, June 1, 2019 .... offered to both residents and non-residents ..... with all the cold weather .... the ice is look'n very strong and safe. The annual fishing license costs $45 for NH residents, plus some businesses like Walmart add a two dollar service charge, making it $47.

Maybe I'm wrong on this, but believe that fishing through natural openings in the lake water is not allowed till April 1, so dropping a line from the bridge over the inflow channel that pours water from Lake Waukewan down into meredith bay on Lake Winnipesaukee is probably not legal, even though you can look down and see some very large cusk, just waiting down below, just being a cusk, which will eat anything.

So, if fishing through natural openings is not legal, then how about fishing from a dock with an ice eater, an unnatural opening in the ice, is this legal?
