Always follow the rules and regulations of the zone your fishing in. This is very important as fish spawn at different time in different bodies of water. Just because one species is open in a zone doesn't mean it's open in the zone adjacent to it. Its a big must to know these things, then when a conservation officer approaches you it makes it that more easier to answer questions. A good example; just the other day I was fishing in a zone for walleye, as it's open till the 31th of March. The next day went to fish in the zone adjacent to it and walleye was closed. Well, just before hitting the water a conservation officer came to see us to ask some questions. He ask me about my rod with the walleye lure on it. I explained to him that I was fishing in a different Zone the day before. Ask us a few more questions and wished us Good Luck! You don't wanna get caught breaking these rules and regulations, they are in place to protect the environment and wildlife. It will be a very unpleasant experience.
