It’s heartbreaking to see how often anglers exploit nature’s gifts. Some pretend to chase the thrill of catching Rainbow Trout, only to strip females of their roe and discard their bodies to waste. This isn’t just unethical—it’s illegal. Our rivers and lakes are treasures, and respecting them is non-negotiable.
Here’s how to help:
Release what you won’t eat. If you’re not keeping the fish, handle it gently and let it go.
Harvest responsibly. Follow local laws if you choose to keep fish—clean and use what you take.
Report poachers immediately. Spot suspicious activity? Call the MNRF TIPS line: 1-877-TIPSMNR (847-7667).
Let’s honour the resources we’re lucky to have. Stay vigilant, respect the waters, and here’s to a fantastic 2025 fishing season!
