Understanding Fishing Regs

[Pursuit]

Ok, I'm getting older and starting to suffer from the Dwindles so I'm confused by the fishing regs. specifically as they relate to Area 29 Coho.

Under the main page chart Salmon Limits, Openings & Closures it indicates that 29-1, 29-2, 29-4, 29-5 and 29-8 are closed for Hatchery Marked Coho.

However under "Additional Info." it says:
"Unless otherwise specified below, the daily limit for coho is 2 per day, hatchery-marked only from June 1 - December 31, 2016 in Areas 14 to 20 and Area 29."
And the only area that it indicates is an exception is an of Area 29-1 allowing both hatchery and wild

Can I keep hatchery marked coho fishing in 29-4 and 29-5 or not??
