New fishing regulations for Lake of the Woods are getting thethumbs up, especially for lake trout limits.
The Ministry of Natural Resources recently came out with its2010 fishing guide.
Gord Pyzer is one of the people who has been pushing for the lake trout catchrestrictions and says it will help protect the species for years to come.
Under the new regulations, there is a zero catch limit for lake trout in much of the northern part of Lake of the Woods.
The exception is Whitefish Bay and other areas on the southwestside of Lake of the Woods.
