An Act To Provide An Exception To A Fishing Prohibition Near The Crooked Brook Dam

This bill amends Maine law to create a specific exception near Crooked Brook Dam in Danforth, Washington County, allowing fishing closer to the dam than the existing 150-foot restriction. It directly affects recreational anglers who fish in that area by expanding the allowable fishing zone adjacent to the dam. The exception permits fishing within the reduced zone but maintains a prohibition on fishing directly in or from the fishway for safety reasons. The change applies only to Crooked Brook Dam, leaving other dam prohibitions unchanged.
