Algoma Highlands Outfitters promotes conservation and asks that you practise catch and release with all fish but those you will eat during your stay and that you take nothing home. I also ask that you return to the lake all walleye over 26 inches, pike over 32 inches, and lake trout over 28 inches. Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated by myself and future visiting fisher persons.
