Default Travers Reservoir boundry/regs clarification

I'm sure this has been asked dozens of times but I can't find it via searching.

I'm trying to figure out where the lines are that describe the following from the regs.

Travers Reservoir (the portion west of SW 2-15-22-W4 North of a line from the farm building to Little Bow Provincial Park Pumphouse)

I even converted the whole township co-ordinates to GPS 50.2225756 -112.919800 but still not clear which part this is describing.

Can anybody draw me a map? lol

As I understand it, any thing upstream from this point would be subject to this regulation.

I'm pretty sure there's buoys on the river that indicate the closure line.

That would be helpful. Does the map above reflect what you've seen ?

That's perfect. I was not close with the GPS conversion.
Thanks.

My question is WHY CANT THE GOVERMENT PUT VISABLE MARKERS THAT ARE SO CLEAR IF THERE IS NO BUILDINGS AS IT IS NO DEFFERENT THEN US HAVING TO SPEND A DAY CHECKING HIDDEN REGULATIONS PHASES JUST TO DO A SIMPLE THING AS WET A LINE AND HAVE A LITTLE FUN? Just speaking from a guy that only fishs under 10 times a year and if the area is to differacult l just aviod it which is a joke that you have to pay for that .

This really isn't that hard, it is pretty obvious from the description and if you have ever been out there. The lake is big enough you don't need to fish north of the boat launch/dock area anyway.

In the summer they do have buoys in the water to designate this area.

I believe the closure is more geared to stop people from shore fishing where the fish all funnel in to to go spawn. It is too shallow and weedy up there for must boats anyways.
