FISHING VESSELS Concentration of fishing vessels may be encountered by day or night in this area. Vessels should navigate with particular caution and maintain a continuous listening watch on the appropriate designated frequency for the VTS Traffic Zone; if not in a Traffic Zone, then Channel 16 (156.8 MHz).

CAUTION In Canadian waters and fishing zones, provided that a vessel engaged in fishing does not impede the passage of any vessel transiting a traffic lane, it may fish in any direction in or near a traffic separation scheme. All vessels must comply with the Collision Regulations. Consult Notice No. 10 in the Notice to Mariners, Annual Edition.
