I do beleive CVR was open to harvest some years after the first planting. It was short lived though as fish were being taken so fast, Captain Highliner would beam with pride. A closure was put in place along with a substantial re stocking. I myself never did harvest a walleye during that open period.
The above is not gospel, the only notes i have for CVR are for the last 4 years.
CVR was only stocked from 1990-1992 and there has been no catch and keep or subsequent stocking that I can find reference to nor that I can recall but the most recent study I've read in 2004 so it is possible there may have been a stocking after that but I don't remember it but I'm certain there has never been catch and keep since 1990.. There may have been the very odd walleye in CVR prior to then due to its connectivity to the Bow but there was no established population.....at least that's what my old mind and research tells me.
