Do you know of anything simular to the second one NR 10 but for fishing. I have looked at section 29 in the past and it seems to be missing sevral things.There are State Statutes and there is State Administrative Code which apply to hunting.
Statutes are section 29: http://www.legis.state.wi.us/statutes/Stat0029.pdf
Code is NR 10.... http://www.legis.state.wi.us/rsb/code/nr/nr010.pdf

After looking through that I can see why a game warden is never able to answer my questions evan after looking it up in the law books. I also noticed several differances between what the code says and what the pamphlets that the dnr hands out when you get your lisence. And those differences could lead to large fines or loss of privlages.Here is the Table of Contents to the entire Administrative Code. That URL was to the first hundred NRs. They go up to NR Chapter EIGHT HUNDRED!

There is no shortage of Wisconsin laws and especially from the Department of Never-ending Regulations.

The little paper "rule" books do an adequate job of keeping most people out of trouble. Do you have some examples of that differences you are referring to?
I am on the opposite end in that many things stated as generally not allowed are actually legal when the law is followed. For an example, you may hunt with a rifle in the "shotgun only" deer hunting areas so long as it is not during deer season. You may use a short barrel rifle to hunt in WI so long as you have the $200 tax stamp for it. You may lean an unloaded firearm against a motor vehicle.
here is an exapmle
The last line on page seven of the spearing an netting regulations says
[align=left]Northern pike may be speared through[/align]

That is an example which will stand on its own. So long as it is open season for Northern Pike, you may spear them through the ice on Lake Superior. The little paper "rule" book says so, and this will keep you out of trouble.
You may not be able to find it in the Code because it is not prohibited by the code. It is legal because it is not illegal. Perhaps they felt no need to add code which allowed it so they merely stated that it is not prohibited in the rule book.
