I know there are whitefish in Gillies lake near tobermory and they get them in the river at owensound and meaford, which is zone 15, and probably the reason they droped the limit from 25 to 12.

You better take map reading 101, Meaford and Owen Sound are in zone 16, probably the better part of 60km away from zone 15. The GB waters around M/ford and O/Sound are in zone 14.

Tell me if I am right or wrong... do not list body of water if I am wrong... just say "you are wrong" if you are 100% sure.
Zone 16 on the regs states whitefish limits are 12. Simcoe has an exception and limit is 2 for Sports. Tell me why they would not just have the 2 for limit for all of Zone 16 since Simcoe is the only body of water with whitefish. Am I wrong and there is another body of water in zone 16 with whitefish? This to me is like a set-up for people to fail. If they know that in zone 16 that Simcoe is the only lake that has this fish.... why even list the 12 limit?
I think this is terrific question and deserving of an answer. I've been puzzled myself in this and never had thought to pose question.
Is it because while in zone 16 - it is treated as if in zone 15?
There are other abnomilies / differences with Simcoe and zone 16 - can't recall them - is it the herring?
Thanks for asking the question!!! Hope to read some good explanations!
herring now has a limit of 2 lake trout white fish and herring your aloud to have 2 each in your posesion

What about sparrow lake?
Sparrow lake is vary shallow theres not any arias that would be deep enough to keep the right water tempature to meet the needs for whitefish to stay alive
