Let them spawn or no one will have any future fish, it's common sense.
I herd the Nippising Natives are going to start controlling the spawn, good for them if they do.
Our little community takes turns watching the fish and through rocks in the water near the fish to spook them away when the natives show up trying to spear or net. The police come, do nothing, but with the pressure of the community the Natives usually just leave. To top it off these are fish sanctuaries as well, doesn't matter.
And if the Natives don't think there doing anything wrong than why do they show up at 3 or 4am, driving with their lights off the majority of times, why not go in the day ?
The Walleyes here just came up today, I will be taking my shifts to protect the fish as much as possible. I also have a lot of Native friends around here and I say the same things to their face, some agree, some don't.
