just saying.

What "Redneck Laws" are these and what makes the states that have these "Redneck Laws" hillbilly?

The DFG doesnt allow use of Bang Sticks due to the as they view non-sporting nature of it not safety. Any laws governing safety of these devices would be a DOJ issue however it obviously is not as you may legally posses them.

These are not novelty, just not legal to use in the aid of taking fish in CA. Go to Alaska or elsewhere and they are perfectly legal. Personally I dont see any more issue with these than a flying gaff or similar landing aids.
