Featured Update
CO Steve Chihak (Moorhead) spent the week working sport fishing, boating enforcement and safety, and ATV enforcement. An increased number of youth operating and riding ATVs without helmets were contacted over the weekend. Parents are urged to ensure their children are wearing helmets when riding on an ATV. A little bit of discomfort wearing a helmet is preferable to a lifetime of regret if your child is injured, or worse, while riding an ATV without a helmet. Violations for the week included an overlimit of walleyes, illegal-length northern pike, fishing without a license and youth under 18 riding/operating an ATV without a helmet.
