Hi, my name is Brendan and I do no support the proposed bait management changes, put forward by the MNRF for many reasons. I live in Northwestern Ontario and I feel this proposal is far too strict for our area.

I wish to understand and some questions about this Bait management. Would you be able to send me more information on how it works. I fish in long lake summer and Winter. I spend a-lot of time and money around this community. So taking away live bait from this lake would be a step backwards.

I don't understand why live bait of all types would be banned in provincial parks. Even though frogs, leaches, worms are common throughout. I understand trying to control invasive minnows. But what is the difference outside of park boundaries that would make this allowable.
