Here's my take on the two pole permit, multiple rod issue:
I would guess that it states only 1 rod when ice fishing because most places allow 5.
There is a recent ask fish and game listing in their news releases asking if a two pole permit allows 10 rods on a 5 rod reservoir. The answer was no.
I'm not 100% certain whether or not a two pole permit allows two rods while ice fishing on Daniels, but I highly doubt it. I also highly doubt that a two pole permit allows two rods on the soft water there.
However, I would think that if you could fish the soft water with 2 rods on a two pole permit, than certainly you would be able to on the ice as well. Because they always seem to allow more rods when ice fishing than on soft water, regardless of what permits/validations you have purchased.
But I have been wrong before.
