Post by: Piranha on June 13, 2008, 09:06:48 PM

A lake I will be fishing in region 3 is not listed in the rules and regulations booklet. If a lake in region 3 is not listed is the limit 6 fish?

If a lake is not listed in the table, it implies that there are no specific regulations apply to the lake. In this case, follow the generic regulations set out in the region.

http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/fw/fish/regulations/docs/2008/fish-synopsis_2008-09_region3.pdf

In region 3, you may keep 6 trout/char in a lake unlike otherwise specified. Only one fish maybe over 50cm long. Only one bull trout/dolly varden/lake trout maybe kept, none under 60cm long.

5 kokanee.

15 whitefish (all species combined).

2 burbot.

25 crayfish.
