A new Rule Making Proposal #264 just hit the PF&BC page.
Its names the Simplification and Consolidation of Regulations.
Many of the 9 major item categories involve mundane Summary Book Changes to language, symantics on baitfish, size, lake regulations, Elimination of the WBTEP program, etc. But one in particular may be of interest to this board.
#8 8)
In § 65.14, {C&R FFO Areas}
the Commission proposes that the reference to single hooks be removed to clarify that multiple hooks are permitted. The Commission also proposes that the reference to “flyline with a maximum of 18 feet in leader material or monofilament line attached” be removed to eliminate a gray area regarding center-pinning techniques, which is becoming a popular technique to fish nymphs and utilizes a much longer leader.
To eliminate confusion and having to name or describe all prohibited lures and substances, the Commission further proposes deleting the list of prohibited items in favor of naming the permitted lures and substances only.

What are your thoughts on letting Center Pinning into FFO areas?
I mean its NOT fly fishing. Meaning the line is not delivering the fly.
Comment period is April 4 - may 4.
