Are they legal to use as bait?? I have heard many people say they are but they are not on the list for legal baitfish in massachusetts. Pumpkinseeds are which leads me to believe bluegills and kivas are legal. Can someone help me out

They do check.. I was at The Res Saturday with AEM and EASTCIDERIDA, They came and checked, had to reel in my Line in to see my weights, lost my best 2 peices of Bait. Wish I would see them in other places were people dont have their license....or when people catch the limit, go home, and come back This is no knock on the DCR or the EP We all run into it

Why would you suggest to someone to break the law? I hope this is a joke. Its people that say stuff like this that p*ss people off that actually abide by the laws. The laws are put there for a reason.
