Does anyone know if there's anything to catch in the stocked pond at Hermitage Park or did it get winter killed? Want to take my girls somewhere with easy access and i live 5 mins from there.

Ive got not idea of when the lakes stocked or if it winter killed etc . You often see lots of guys fishing there though .

As for regulations go its provincial wide possession limits

Province-wide maximum possession – All fish kept from any lake or stream, from any Watershed Unit, count as part of the province-wide maximum possession that must not be exceeded. The maximum number of fish you may have, including fish at your home and fish caught under a special harvest licence, for each game fish species or group of species is listed below:

•Trout and Arctic Grayling – 5 in total, combined of:
0 bull trout (native to Alberta);
2 Northern Dolly Varden (stocked in Chester Lake only);
1 golden trout;
2 Arctic grayling;
3 lake trout;
5 cutthroat trout;
5 rainbow trout;
5 brown trout;
5 brook trout.

•Mountain Whitefish – 5 in total.
•Walleye and Sauger – 3 in combined total.
•Northern Pike – 3 in total.
•Yellow Perch – 15 in total.
•Lake Whitefish and Cisco (Tullibee) – 10 in combined total.

OK, I'll check with the FH. I was there today grabbing some minnows and never even thought about asking them.

Went down there yesterday to take a look, Didn't see any fish jumping/ rising so I don't think it is stocked yet.
