Park fees could be headed higher to deal with all the added paperwork.  Or, people might just sneak in without a permit, consequences be damned if it's clear the MNR can't be trusted with their private info.  |

Wow, if this request goes through, I might have to file my own freedom of information request to find out which lake in Quetico is known to have the highest biomass of lake trout of any lake in Ontario. (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)
 Last year I asked someone in the know at Canoecopia about it and they would not tell me the lake directly, but I pointed to a lake on a map and asked if it was "that" lake and he nodded it was. (BTW, It wasn't the lake that is named That lake). Now I wonder if he was just messing with me.  Park fees could be headed higher to deal with all the added paperwork. |

Not exactly the same, but when I’ve been on a lake and sense that other parties are trying to figure out where I’m fishing, I’ve been known to set a marker buoy in a place that, if there are fish present, they will be hammerhandles or juvenile bass. I will leave it there, in sight of my Camp, of course, as it provides great entertainment and humor. Of course, the optimal set up is, if they come by and ask about the fishing, is to hold up a nice stringer, and point to the general area of the lake where they will find the marker. You know, it's funny how you can instantly like someone who you've never met. We'd get along just fine. |

Whoever filed that is a supreme jerk. I hope you get the person's identity and post it on here. Maybe his phone number and home address too. I'm really not a vindictive person at all. Even if I did manage to unearth his identity I wouldn't reveal it. I do however believe in karma and have no doubt at some point it'll come back to bite him in the butt. |

As with everything else, markers are multi-purpose. Yeah, he's crafty. One year Old Salt brought a whole flock of pink flamingo "buoys" with him. They were set up within sight of his camp on Suzanette Lake, just as he says. When my party arrived at his camp (for Pink Flamingo Stew, as it turned out), he told us we were early and that we should "follow the birds" to find the good fishing hole. So, we spun around and paddled off to follow his directions. I suspect he was giving us the bird, too, as we headed out.... Jimbo  |

Is that what you take markers for! |
