Trout waters<br />
Trout waters<br />
There are four types of trout waters. Each has different rules. This helps protect breeding<br />
populations and shares catches fairly. You will find details in the following colour coded tables. If a<br />
stream is not listed look for the major stream it runs into. Rules apply to all streams and tributaries<br />
upstream of points indicated. In unlisted waters general <strong>fishing</strong> rules apply. During seasonal<br />
closures all forms of <strong>fishing</strong> is prohibited in general trout streams, artificial fly and lure streams and<br />
Trout spawning streams. Targeting other species in closed waters is prohibited.<br />
