Anglers Checked


The Ministry of Natural Resources says most anglers fishing the Fort Frances area are following the rules.

A recent check of anglers by MNR Conservation officers found 95 per cent in compliance with fishing regulations.

Most were non-residents.

The MNR did lay five charges and issued another fifteen warnings during the May 28 check for such things as having more than the legal limit of fish, packaging fish so they could not be easily identified or failing to produce a valid fishing license.
