Transporting live fish (native or non-natives) from any water bodies in this province and collecting them for your aquarium is illegal. Please do not do it.

Thanks Rodney i thought it was only transporting them to other lakes.

So? They do not belong here? Are you supporting illegal stockings?

Well that escalated quickly. With that exact argument you could say non aboriginals don't belong here as were introduced. Hell surely there is trout species we've introduced in a lot of species that don't belong.
In closing, I fully support the Military, yet I do not support murder.

Don't be stupid. So you do support illegal stockings? You are a member of the bucket brigade?
-
We are not part of the bucket brigade im actualy against it because it damages some lakes but for deer lake its too late and bass is my favorite fish.

But it can/should be remedied :)

Why kill everything and ruin a lake for 2 years?

Seriously, some of these small, shallow, warm, urban (and many not so urban) lakes are far more suited to bass and sunfish. When a lake is isolated from moving water I think we need to keep an open mind regarding those species being planted/introduced. Thing is, that is where they need to stay, and enforcing that ,now, is impossible...
