My understanding after reading the 2013 Angling Guide (Terran be gentle) is that the portion of Grand Lake that exists in Hants Co. you are allowed to retain 25 SMB of any size. I base that on the following info.
TROPHY FISHERY (RFA 3)
Grand Lake, Halifax County
Big Mushamush Lake, Lunenburg County,
Apr 1 to Dec 31.
Bag limit three (3) bass, maximum
length 35cm (13.8 in.) except from May 1
to Jun 15 no smallmouth bass may be
retained.
SMALLMOUTH BASS (RFA 5)
Apr 1 to Oct 31, bag limit five (5) in Kings
and Annapolis Counties, bag limit twenty five
(25) in Hants County except Special
Bass Management Areas.
SPECIAL BASS MANAGEMENT AREAS (RFA 5)
TROPHY FISHERY
Black River Lake, Little River Lake,
Methals Lake, Kings County,
Panuke Lake, Hants County <--- no mention of that portion of Grand Lake in Hants Co.
Apr 1 to Dec 31, bag limit three (3)
bass, maximum length 35 cm (13.8
in.) except from May 1 to Jun 15 no
smallmouth bass may be retained, night

Am I understanding that correctly? Thoughts...
