Enforcement Blitz Nets Charges


Almost 100 charges and another 300 warnings were issued by Ministry of Natural Resources Conservation officers during a recent enforcement blitz across northwestern Ontario.

Almost 23-hundred anglers were checked on area rivers and lakes during the seven-day blitz held from June 17 to June 24.

Most of the charges were issued for fishing without a license, having too much fish or importing live bait.
