Well, the province is doing most of the stocking. To much money? I don't know. One of my pet peeves is the rate at which ponds are cleaned out. For the price of fish I see no reason to have a limit of 5 fish. It grieves me to see members of this site asking where the fish have been stocked. People take as many as they can as quickly as they can. That is unsustainable. I am lucky enough to live close to a trophy lake, the fishing was outstanding there for many years until water quality issues have caused problems. I just wish more anglers would take advantage of the lake whitefish fisheries, especially in the irrigation res. of the south.
