Yep only an aquaculture permit required, which is for grass carp and any other species not on the list of regularly allowed species. And yeah as Rex said you need to file quarterly reports for the grass carp.

Scott, did you hear Rural King had something to do with it? Randy Lang of the INDNR told us at an Indiana Aquaculture meeting, back when governor Pence first became governor, Pence wanted to get rid of all permits. I assumed he was the reason. I believe it is in court though.


The letter I got from IDNR said the DNR had been sued and the court found IDNR lacked statutory authority to require a hauling/transport permit. The letter went on to say, expect the law to change and a permit to be required in the near future. It will probably cost now, to cover the law suit...
