Definition of a drop line by TPWD?

[RiverRat1]

What momma don't know dont hurt her. I have no problem tagging my lines but I'm not putting a float for every meat head that drives by to see my lines and run them.

So why tag if you're already illegal? That's my thought now.

I like being legal but if they make it near impossible and cite you even when trying then it makes more sense to just hide them better. Would the ticket be bigger if line had no float and no tag? LOL

Does it say what size/color the float has to be? Just wrap a little dark float on your line around the limb.

It's for folks that don't pull their lines when done fishing. Passive catching may happen and it kills the fish. Float is for GW visibility and tag is to know who to ticket . Fish for over a week and you should have updated the date on the tag at least once.

One more example of excessive micromanagement by TPWD.
