DNR Says It Will Work With Anglers On Removal Of Ice Shanties

Ice fishermen are supposed to have their permanent shanties off the ice by now, but the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources says it will work with them if they are delayed.  Sunday was the deadline and some shanty owners said that was too soon.  The deadline only affects permanent structures on inland waterways south of Highway 64.  People struggling to get their shanties removed should call the local conservation warden or the D-N-R.  A portable structure is fine, as long as the angler removes it when he or she leaves.
