Its been a while since some major changes in the fishing world have been adjusted and now the province is looking into banning fisher-people from keeping trophy Walleye bigger than 70cm.
Something most anglers are receiving well considering how if you want more fish to fish, they need to be able to grow old and mate. “Only up to three per cent of the walleye population will make it to be adults and reproduce. So the more big fish released, the better. I’m all for it.” Fishing Guide, Todd Longley said.
The province is also looking into allowing year round fishing for all species excluding Walleye, lake trout and Sturgeon during their spawning season.
These types of changes can take quite some time to be approved and at the earliest, if they are we may see them come into affect April 1, 2023.
