I thought this was a polish joke...."how many poles"...does it take to catch a stockie trout?
Yeah if they say you have too many have some of them say they are Hungarian.

Not sure where you are fishing opening day but... It is a lil crazy! and ONE pole is more than enough and im sure you will piss off a few guys you try to squeeze in 2-3 poles. If it is your first opener stick to the basics and just catch fish with 1 pole

You can set up in a spot BUT you can NOT start trout fishing till 8:00am on opening day April 11, 2009.

As for how many rods you can legally use at one time it is 3.

If you are fishing a stocked pond as I think you maybe, as there is no way you will be able to fish 3 rods in a fast moving stream or river as they are usual flooded out by opening day, then you would be much better off sticking with one rod in the water on opening day at least till the afternoon and the crowds of kids fishing with mom calm down or you will just spend the whole morning trying to untangle you lines with everyone around you ;)
Most pond stocking are targeted at local youth to draw them out for a family day or town fishing derby so they are usually quite crowed in the morning with youth trying there best to catch a fish [up]

Good Luck & Catch'um Up [up]
