The Ministry of Natural Resources launched an enforcement blitz Wednesday aimed at protecting sensitive lake trout fisheries.

The blitz, involving conservation officers from Sault Ste Marie, Kirkland Lake, Timmins, North Bay and Sudbury, will run until March 15.

The focus will be on sensitive lake trout fisheries, most of which have a shortened open season for winter angling, the ministry stated in a press release.

Lake trout reach reproductive maturity slowly and are very susceptible to winter angling.

For information on fishing regulations, anglers should check the 2005-2006 Recreational Fishing Regulations Summary available at district offices, licence issuers and on the ministry's website at www.mnr.gov.on.ca/MNR/pubs/pubmenu.html.
