As a cottage owner on another area lake (Pickerel Lake off Minaki Hwy) I have a concern that reducing catch and possession limits on Lake of the Woods while not making the same changes on other area lakes could have the unintended effect of encouraging anglers to apply greater pressure to the walleye populations on other lakes, many of which also have declining and/or endangered walleye populations. Therefore, while I support the proposed change (preferred alternative) on LOTW, I would like to see the change applied to all lakes in the area (and the Winnipeg River for that matter.)
