• Rainbow trout daily quota is 2
• Artificial fly only
• Bait ban
• Single barbless hook

Proposed regulation:

Consistent with regional direction to move from single barbless hooks to single hooks on small, stocked lakes. Removing bait ban because it is already captured under artificial fly only regulation.
