A license is required in order to fish on any of the above waters. Check your conservation license to see the number of the various fish you are entitled to possess at any one time. It is important to note that High Quality Management lakes exist in the Snow Lake area and that the Angling Guide available from any Conservation office should be consulted regarding all fishing regulations on any waters in the area.   The season is officially closed for part of May during spawning to permit the fish to replenish their numbers. Check with Conservation or your Angler's Guide to find out the dates. It is important to note that all fishing in Manitoba is now "barbless”.
