Net fishing is now no longer allowed at Leclere Lake in Coffeyville.

 

City Clerk Melissa Carter says this was brought to the commission because of concerns raised by citizens about the use of nets on the lake.  Carter says the proposed amendment would prohibit all forms of net fishing on Leclere Lake.

 

The Coffeyville City Commission unanimously approved both the first and second reading of the ordinance amending the rules for fishing on Leclere Lake.
