Anglers Fined

An enforcement blitz along the Winnipeg River has led to 13 charges and 39 warnings issued by Ministry of Natural Resources Conservation Officers.

More than 260 anglers were checked in the two week blitz that ended early last week.

Most of the charges laid related to anglers having an overlimit of walleye, fishing without a license, or transporting fish that could not be measured and identified.
