Zone 18 exception question

[AuldAnglerSyne]

I'd like to go crappie fishing on the South Nation some time in the next few weeks.

I'm just a little confused as to the exceptions listed on the 2016 Fishing Regulations:

http://files.ontario.ca/environment-and ... nglish.pdf

Are the exceptions specific to the towns mentioned or do they include all the area between the towns?


As an example, here are 2 written exceptions:

South Nation River - Finch Twp.,
Hamlet of Crysler.
Fish sanctuary - no fishing from
Mar. 1 - Fri. before 2nd Sat. in May

South Nation River - Cambridge
Twp., Coupal’s dam in Casselman
downstream to the westerly limit of
Lot 11, Conc. V.
Fish sanctuary - no fishing from
Mar. 1 - Fri. before 2nd Sat. in May.

Does this mean the whole river isn't fishable between Crysler & Casselman until the 2nd Sat. in May?

Or does it mean no fishing in the town limits of Crysler, but the area after that all the way to Coupal's dam is OK?

Sure looks to me like it's two separate areas, but like anything if you have any doubts it's always best to contract the ministry.

Its only sanctuary at the hamlet of Crysler at the dam. You can fish all the way from Casselman to the hamlet of Crysler with out any problem at all.
