thanks guys for the reply. i wasnt able to find much info on the web so i called dfg and 1pole for fresh water and they can have as many as they want on salt but they have attend it so you cannot cast or reel in the fish for them. and yes, they can keep their limits.

DFG Chapter 2 - 2.00
"Anglers in possession of a valid two-rod stamp and anglers under 16 years of age may use up to two rods in inland waters which regulations provide for the taking of fish by angling, except those waters in which only artificial lures or barbless hooks may be used."

All my kids have usd two poles for the past 12 years without any issues with game wardens checking.
