Waters with Special Regulations Morell River 1. On any day, an angler who holds a salmon licence must cease all angling on the Morell River for that day after two fish, either salmon or grilse, have been caught and released, whichever occurs first. 2. From April 15 to September 15, in the lower section of the Morell River from MacKay’s to the mouth of the river (railway bridge), trout may be taken on any tackle. This section of river is closed to all angling after September 15. 3. Any Atlantic salmon must be released immediately with the least possible harm to the fish. 4. Please note that salmon smolts migrate to sea during the month of May. Smolts are delicate at this time and can easily die if handled. If you find yourself catching numerous salmon smolts, please consider angling in a different location until the smolt run is diminished. 5. The section of the East Branch of the Morell River containing the old Crane’s Pond dam site is closed to all angling for the period July 1 to September 15. The section of river affected includes all waters 250 metres upstream of the highway bridge on Route 355. This closure is in effect as a conservation measure to protect trout broodstock. - 28 -

The restriction applies to Leard’s Pond, Riverton, the West Branch below Leard’s Pond, all that section of the East Branch below the Hazelgreen Road (Route 329); and the main section of the river from the point of union of the West and East Branches to MacKay’s in the Bangor area. 7. The extended season from September 16 to October 31st is for Atlantic salmon only, using barbless hooks. 8. For the period September 16 to October 15 inclusive, salmon angling is restricted to those areas on the Morell River as defined in Section 6 above. 9. Salmon angling on Leard’s Pond is permitted from June 1 to October 31st, inclusive. - 29 -
