So there's a great overpass near my house with turtles and frogs and HUGE fish. My roomates want to see if they can catch a turtle or a fish. Would that be considered illegal in the state of Kentucky?

* I think it would be considered a bridge. Its a large road that runs over a stream. The stream runs through my neighborhood and then onto someone's farm property. The side we'd like to fish at is in our neighborhood.

We were planning on finding a way down to the under portion. We just wanted to double check on it first.

do you mean overpass or bridge? either way no its not illegal but I wouldn't do it anyway you risk snapping your rod lifting the fish/turtle up to you and if its on an overpass you risk getting hit by cars so you could but I wouldn't (if its a train bridge, they will not let you)

Don't know. Try getting a leaflet on fishing regulations for your state from either a bait store (or here in Florida you can get them at the auto tag agency). That should list any restrictions like that.... I know here in Fl. you can fish from some bridges, but not others.... *shrug* good luck

The ship's captain is the law so, yes, it's illegal! No cruise ship allows pax to fish off the side. In the past I've seen crew fishing off a service hatch while in port, but I suspect even they were breaking "the law". RJ

I would look at going down along the side to get closer to the water. That way you don't break your line or rod and you don't risk getting hit by a vehicle

I bet it is, roads are county and state property, so they are probly laws against it, but anythings legal till you get caught!

depends look in the drivers manual and look for signs on the bridge
