FYI

No fishing - January 1 to Friday after the second Saturday in May and November 16 to December 31

Gull River - Coboconk in Bexley and Somerville Townships, from Trent-Severn Dam downstream to narrows approaching Balsam Lake

The two go hand in hand.

Like I said just an FYI for you fishing up in Coby. Make sure to check the exceptions for the lakes you fish.

I don't think Rosedale really ever freezes lol, but it might be a bit before more of the lake is open.

And that Coboconk sanctuary is just for the Trent canal outside of Balsam, its not for the actual lake. Theres no fish sanctuary on Balsam.
