Manitoba Conservation imposes temporary ban on Lake Dauphin fishing
After 130 000 pounds of pickerel removed and conflicting estimates of up to 160 000 pounds, Manitoba Conservation bans fishing on Lake Dauphin and nearby tributaries from March 2 to May 11 to protect dwindling walleye stocks. The move follows tensions with aboriginal and non Aboriginal groups and seeks a compromise balancing treaty rights with stock protection.
