Partial bait ban.

Fries are allowed, but no poutine.

The curds are okay, but I think the idea is that they're trying to avoid the use of the "scents" in the gravy.

At least that's how I'm interpreting the regs?

I had some success too, but on rings not fries. And those dam regs!! There are some definate grey area? Gravy. No gravy. Curds. No curds? Don't let the haters get on you for keeping that one.

I only use onion rings when I run out of cheese curds.

Just make sure there are no jet boats speeding through the spawning seeds at exactly 70km/h.
