| | | Sec. 11. 12 MRSA §7625, as enacted by PL 1979, c. 420, §1, is | | amended to read: |
|
| | | §7625. Failure to label fish |

|
| | | This bill requires moose hunters to wear 2 articles of | | hunter orange clothing and exempts hunters from the hunter | | orange clothing requirement when hunting from a tree stand. | | The bill also allows a person to keep a gift bear, deer, moose | | or fish if it is labeled with just the name of the person who | | harvested the animal and the date when the animal was | | harvested. Additionally, the bill removes the prohibition on | | baiting deer and allows a person to keep more than one legally | | harvested game animal in that person's home. Finally, the | | bill allows a person to assist in a hunt without a license or | | permit if that person does not carry a weapon during that | | hunt. |
