[font=Arial, sans-serif]Bait launching with a DIY spud gun?[/font]

[font=Arial, sans-serif]Question:[/font][font=Arial, sans-serif] Is the use of bait launchers legal in California? [/font]

[font=Arial, sans-serif]I have seen many videos and DIY plans showing how to build fishing bait launchers. They look pretty much like a potato gun but are used only for propelling the bait past the surf for a chance at the larger fish. They are made of PVC pipe and filled with air, probably from a bike pump. [/font]

[font=Arial, sans-serif]Its only purpose is for getting the fishing bait out farther than one can cast. I would imagine that certain areas would be opposed to their use, but in general, are these legal to use? (Daniel N.)[/font]

[font=Arial, sans-serif]Answer:[/font][font=Arial, sans-serif] Potato-style guns like you are referring to are legal under federal law. However, under state law, potato guns that use combustion (instead of compressed air) to launch the projectile are “firearms,” and one with a bore of over 0.5 inches is a destructive device.[/font]

[font=Arial, sans-serif]Pneumatic potato guns that use compressed air are legal as long as they are not used like a weapon (e.g. shot at a person, etc.), so this line launching device would be legal under state and federal laws. [/font]

[font=Arial, sans-serif]However, you should check for local city and county ordinances because some local governments prohibit use of any devices that propel projectiles. [/font]

[font=Arial, sans-serif]If you intend to use this line launching device on a state beach, you may also want to consult State Parks. And if you plan to use it to fish within a National Marine Sanctuary, I suggest you check in with that Sanctuary office to be sure they do not prohibit these types of devices.[/font]

[font=Arial, sans-serif]As far as using it to cast a fishing line, nothing in the Fish and Game Code or its implementing regulations prohibit using this compressed air launcher as long as the fishing line remains attached to a rod and reel, or the person is brave enough to hold the other end of line in their hands![/font]

When I lived in SoCal, there was a city law that said that you couldn't have more than 18 alligators in your living room. Like there's all that much of a difference between 18 and 19 alligators?

In Hollywood, it's illegal to drive more than 2,000 sheep down Hollywood Blvd at once. Who's going to count them? Suppose they miscount -- do you get a fine? Can you ask for a recount?

In Blythe, you're not allowed to wear cowboy boots unless you have at least 2 cows. I thought that cowboy boots were a fashion statement.

Sometimes it makes you wonder just HOW drunk politicians get on the job......

Probably not a problem because the official "counters" keep falling asleep ....
