Be aware of your limits when fishing
Categories

It's a day anglers' countdown to after the ice fishing season. Fishing season opened back up on May 5 for the southern zone in Saskatchewan, and it won't be long before rods and reels are back out in the central zone.

Saskatchewan is divided into three management zones for angling regulation. The next opening date is May 15 for the central zone, located between Highway 16 and the Churchill River to the north, and then May 25 is opening day for anything north of that border.

As always fishing limits still exist in most provincial Crown waters in Saskatchewan. They refer to maximum numbers of fish someone can have, or to the size of a certain fish that you are allowed to have in your possession. Anglers cannot reach a limit for one fish species and then move on to another. These limits go for any particular day and include any fish that are eaten or given away, fish that are packed away at your camp, being transported, or in other forms of storage.

More information on catch limits and other fishing regulations can be found inside the government information site HERE.
