Bait Harvest Area

Identifies harvest areas used for baiting purposes of small fish and frogs.

Bait resources in most of the province are assigned to harvesters through the use of a block system — 1 harvester per ‘bait harvest’ area.

There are exceptions to the block system (e.g., Lake Erie), where bait is allocated to multiple users fishing the same area.
