Aurora trout regulations...


Recommended Posts

Does anybody know if the one fish per day limit applies in aggregate? If there are two anglers fishing for Auroras and one is caught, does the 'stop fishing for the day' mean both anglers must stop or can the other angler who has yet to catch one continue targeting them on that same day until a second is caught?

"Qadri (1968) observed differences between aurora trout and brook trout in skeletal structure; in particular, the number of trunk vertebrate, the number of ribs with strongly bifid heads, the number of single neural spines and the total number of epineurals. There are also some morphometric differences, including the length of the maxillary.'

 

Are these not genetic differences?

" In 2011, the Aurora Trout was determined by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) to be ineligible for assessment as it did not satisfy the discreteness and significance criteria that would justify its recognition as a designatable unit within Brook Trout. Similarly, it is no longer considered eligible to be designated as a species of risk under Ontario’s Endangered Species Act, 2007 (2011). Reassessment of the species’ status under the federal Species at Risk Act is currently underway. "

it's status as an endangered species looks to be at risk, does anyone know anything more recent than this info.
