If these are winter shacks that the owner sets up in one location for the winter and doesn't move them it would affect his business. If you have a few consecutive groups with status rights that keep a very large quantity of fish, the quality of fishing at the spot could get worse for the following clients who may then not return in future years.
Enforcing limits or size restrictions above and beyond the provincial mandated limits is something hunting outfitters do all the time in order to manage herds and ensure the best future trophies for their clients. There's nothing wrong with it.
The only issue I have is that the owner was blatantly racist about it. Just say lake limits are enforced in order to preserve the best opportunities for all clients renting the shacks.
