So I just got a call from my sister in law. Her boyfriend was out fishing at Wab from shore near the tressel outside of moonlight bay. He got a ticket from fishing from shore... I have never heard of a regulation like that before... Anyone know anything about this??

not sure of the area there but could he have been on railway property?
Just got hold of the guy. Here's the story I'm getting.
He was there with his brother fishing. A couple of guys were playing chicken on the tracks (not sure what that means...) so someone called the cops. I guess him, his brother and 5 other people got tickets for trespassing (he was under the bridge at the time) and were told that you can only fish Wabamun from a boat.
He doesn't think it was a CO that wrote the ticket. I'm not sure if he'd know though to be honest. They said they'd handed out over 20 tickets for it that day...
I'm told he wasn't on the bridge at the time. Would have had to cross the tracks to get to where I suspect he was. But I'm told that he was told (stories like that are always so reliable aren't they??) that you're only allowed to fish from a boat now...

to answer your question: shore fishing is legal at wab, tresspassing is not (specially if you get caught, and espessially on CN property)
Shore fishing at Wab Illegal???
