Regulation clarification

[mlee]

Trying to settle an argument....
If let's say one is fishing a lake that lists pike and perch limits in the regs but does not mention walleye.....if a walleye is caught in that lake then the general walleye regulations (3) apply correct? Or are you required to release?

Im not 100 percent sure, but im fairly confident that it then defers to posession.... just like you are stating.

Zone specific regs. For example if the lake is in PP2 then look at the PP2 Site Specific Regulations option C.

Default regulations for other PP2 Lakes, Reservoirs and Ponds not included under (A) or (B) and for fish species not mentioned at a listed lake.

The only time you refer to the possession limits found at beginning of the regs is for possession and in the very rare case that the zone regulations don't address the species(an example being catching a lake trout in the Athabasca river which is one of the only examples of this I know of off the top of my head).
