Paddlefish season extended to May 31

Kansas paddlefish snagging season, which normally runs from March 15 to May 15, has been extended through May 31 at the Chetopa Dam on the Neosho River.

Heavy rains have the river running at more than 10,000 cubic feet per second, and more fish are arriving daily.

Paddlefish may be snagged using pole and line with not more than two single or treble hooks.
