Time to move shacks from Lakes

March 15, 2012

FISHERS URGED TO REMOVE SHACKS FROM LAKES AND RIVERS

– – –
Weather Impacting Ice Conditions
Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship is urging individuals with ice shacks on any lake or river in southern or central Manitoba to take the structures off the ice as soon as possible, as long as conditions allow a safe removal.
Warm temperatures are causing ice conditions to deteriorate faster than normal in these areas.
Everyone venturing onto the ice should exercise caution and good judgment.
March 31 is the normally the last day for removal of ice shacks in the south, but the recent weather means that early removal is required.
Regulations require that all ice-fishing shacks be moved off the Red River by March 13.
