Default Test net results

I recently ran into a test net set up on Wabamun lake, just wondering is the public allowed to get the results from this?

I ran into some test nets as well and took some video. Also got some of them pulling the nets. They call you over to tell you what they are doing and they don't want you videoing what they are doing. The one guy asked me not to video because it ends up on the internet. Well I'll be making a video when I have time so you can all see how it works!

To answer OP's question, yes there is, but it depends who does it.

AB Env is really REALLY unorganized with their transparency and reporting.

The best luck I've found is by searching for a specific lake in google. ie: "pigeon lake walleye fishery report", and going from there. That search phrase brings me to the ACA which has a report here: http://www.ab-conservation.com/go/de...nd-buck-lakes/

I've found much better ones, but they take some digging. It's certainly public information, but it's not the easiest thing in the world to find.

I sent a picture to SRD last week and they stated to me they were netting at Wabamun to try an determine the cause of the pathogen that is affecting the pike with red sores.
