I think you are the one who does not understand.

Nowhere in the quoted rule does it say they are illegal, it just says they are not baitfish. Smelts and saltwater herring are also not baitfish but are legal anywhere without a bait ban.

So if not listed as baitfish it is ok to use? Smelts and SW Herring are listed as "ok", is prussian carp? Note the word carp.

You keep telling us to read the regs and we are, we're even explaining our interpretation of them to you. Maybe you could elaborate on how you've determined them to be illegal?
Already have!

Do you know what "except" means? Can you use goldfish for bait in Alberta?
