Effective next Saturday, any legal terminal gear may be used to angle for, whitefish and rainbow trout. Kokanee are closed to fishing. The current restriction of artifi- cial flies only ends Friday. Anglers are reminded that as of Jan. 1, West Arm rainbow will be closed until May 31. This regulation has been in effect for several years and is designed to protect spawning rainbow trout.
