Coverage

A schematic of jurisdictions, not a chart of positions — one square per state, province and territory, carrying the number of named public waters held there. Geography is given at the resolution a decision is made at: which jurisdiction governs, and what else is nearby. A named public water is located to about a hundred metres, which tells you the basin and nothing about where the fish are. Fishing spots, access detail and private water are not in the catalog.
