NDGF Help Center FAQ

Can I use dead fathead minnows on no-live-baitfish lakes?

Yes. However, understand that absolutely no live baitfish may be used or in possession while on these waters. Live fatheads in a minnow bucket in a vehicle while someone is shore-fishing means they are in one's possession and thus would be illegal.
