    I live around Ottawa, but mostly fish around Algonquin and Sudbury

    I'm sure a lot of small vendors won't be too happy with this setup, as a lot of sales are "cash". It goes right into their pockets without any reporting of income.

    Yup... seriously
    I think this will be a law I will disregard.

    Maybe. If I can't use my own dew worms,I'll stick to crankbait. I wouldn't want to be in the bait business,anymore. Legislation like this can kill an entire industry.

    Doesn't apply to worms. You can use your own.

    Wish I had paid more attention. The problem is the line between zone 15 and zone 18 for us. We fish 18 but live in 15. Likely a 100 kilometer trip or more to purchase legal minnows for 18
    Are there bait dealers in Lanark?
    Just not reasonable.

    Thinking of changing my address on one of my ID's to my cottage, At least then I could catch minnows at my cottage for use on that lake directly.

    This issue needs to be clarified. Not being able to catch and use minnows at a cottage on the same lake is asinine !

    agreed, and that is the only place I actually catch minnows. I get that as a CO, if they ask, you have no form of ID in your wallet to prove that is your cottage residence, but really there must be a way you can catch and use bait in the same water body.

    I guess it may be hard to enforce, but I'd prefer a ban on transportation of bait (unless bought) to a different body of water. Although, that is just me, I'm sure that would upset a lot of other anglers who fish around their home residence.

    Where about are you fishing? I know a new store just opened up in Smiths falls that will be stocking minnows soon
