Here you go this has been around for 40-50 years now. Art

Worked for the MNR , actually think it was still the dept. of Lands and Forests when I started, back in the 70's , worked with a few clueless, one day I asked the boss about them ?? he called them P.A.'s , what do you mean I asked, " political appointees " 🤪

I think until they get educated by a CO. Most of the zone borders I guess really don't mean that much as there are bait shops close by on both sides. The Wawa area is particularly affected with the next closest shop being 150km away from the lake being 2km from home. Wawa doesn't have a lot to offer the population other than fishing so this will hurt if it is enforced. Lots of trout and walleye fishing there where minnows are used a lot in winter.

I think all this will do is make good people unknowingly break the law and bring bait from wherever it is convenient or from where they have bought their bait for years and fished those waters? Dan.

I'm just at the stage of gathering the needed parts. I have all the missing dash components and front bumper. Best part is that it is already set up to tow my boat. Trying to free up the pistons in cylinders 1,2 and 6. It sure isn't pretty but I have repaired worse for people. And a picture of someone's finished Meteor.

The size of the water turbine you'd need to charge a 12/24 volt system, even in a 5-10 hr. time frame, wouldn't be practical on the average size of an angler's boat. Possibly a small gas inverter generator? Some of the newer small gens are very quiet, that installed inside a cubby you'd barely hear it. Dan.

I can’t help you on species or techniques, But there is a Gravel launch to both lakes

This is going to bum a lot of people in Wawa out. Some of their best fishing is 2 miles south in a different FMZ and also a different BMZ. Since you can't transport bait fish to a different BMZ the closest they can purchase bait is over 200km away to Sault Ste Marie and only keep it for 2 weeks with a receipt. Can't even catch their own bait in the other zone because it's not their zone of residence. I can drive from Sault with bait purchased here, or trapped here and fish. Somebody should have put some more thought into this as it will affect many isolated communities near a zone border. Yikes
