    This measure is in place due to high water temperatures.

    Gros Morne National Park has closed some rivers to fishing. Fishing is not allowed at Lomond River from the park boundary to high tide marks at Bonne Bay (the section within Gros Morne National Park), East Branch Lomond River; and Deer Arm Brook (Eastern Arm Brook) from Deer Arm Pond (Eastern Arm Pond) to the high tide marks at Bonne Bay. This includes rivers and brooks, as well as tributaries and connected ponds. This measure is in place due to high water temperatures. These watercourses will reopen if environmental conditions improve.
