To those whom may think that sending an e-mail or letter has no effect, a few years back massive public out cry and public pressure reversed a decision where the lease agreement for land around and directly beneath Marie Lake was revoked. The oil company want to drilled under the Lake to gain access to the oil reserves that are directly beneath the Lake bed.

If you feel commercial fishing should be stopped on Pigeon Lake let your voice be heard. It can’t hurt.

Unfortunately you will be fighting against many locals around Pigeon Lake whom have traditionally commercially fished Pigeon and South Buck for many years. Mostly farmers whom have little interest in angling or conservation. The very few fishermen whom just want to make a few bucks and the rest whom just purchase the netted fish for dinner.
