I really dont think that 5 days will make any difference in a 7 month long contest....Rivers will technically be closed until the 5th...if you can afford the ticket, go for it....
I personally fish a closed river pre trout opener every year... and get chased out by the local C.O. every yr....He has never ticketed me mainly because he knows that i am not targeting the trout when he sees my gear....Baitcaster,12lb test and big ugly jigs.....Its funny because its the ONLY time that we see and speak to each other every yr....He knows exactly where to find me and usually B.S's wit me for bout 15-20 min so i can fish fer a few min longer...3 yrs ago he helped me land a six lb.er and took a pic for me....Fished with him last yr....Found him in my spot poundin beers and smallies...
