Ice Fishing Anglers Fined for Abandoned Shacks - DiscoverWestman

MANITOBA CONSERVATION OFFICER SERVICE ENFORCEMENT UPDATE - Media Release April 22, 2022 Manitoba Natural Resources and Northern Development advises that conservation officers are continuing enforcement to protect Manitoba’s natural resources through a variety of enforcement activities across the province. The deadline to remove ice-fishing shacks in the southern division for the 2021-22 angling season was March 31. Since the end of March, the Conservation Officer Service has issued six tickets and four written warnings to anglers for a variety of offences, including failing to remove an ice-fishing shack, failing to mark an ice-fishing shack or littering. To date, officers have removed four illegal unmarked fishing shacks that were not removed by their owners. Additional shacks remain frozen into the ice. If officers cannot remove shacks due to weather conditions, they will melt into the lake or river, creating pollution and a potential boating hazard. Efforts are ongoing to find and charge fishers with unmarked or abandoned shacks. googletag.cmd.push(function() { if($(document).width()<900) { s = googletag.defineSlot(
