Sounds good!

Thanks!

Back to 2011 prices: $6 each = $48 for the lot of 8.

this is the nearest BC example I can find that looks similar to the fence weir:

Well, now you are just being silly!

oh absolutely & I could go on.

However looking at the pic I would say the fence barriers have been damaged by water flow (notice some sections are droopy) so probably don't look quite as when they were constructed. They also appear to be patched (note the orange section). The sort of loop or C shaped section from the middle towards the far shore seems intended to coral something. The mid channel clear section may have been a place a net could be placed though usually weir traps for live fish would angle from near center stream to shore on either side with a purse of closed area for capture. Really don't know and I doubt anyone here does unless Dave has seen something like this before.

FWIW and as I am sure you know, enumerating morts is very common means of estimating run size. The usual method of having a crew walk the stream banks is inefficient, labour intensive and not pleasant work. Maybe someone was doing a trial on an alternate.

Maybe you should send the photo and particulars to DFO or even the Sto Lo or Cheam band offices as they may be aware what this was about.

Thanks!

well perhaps we should consider these structures have been produced by the same extra-terrestrial visitors responsible for crop circles and similar phenomena  or perhaps you put them there yourself to vex members of fishing discussion groups everywhere! They could also be syruptious[sic] seal traps planted by the Specific Balance Pinniped Society or the related but not so related Specific Balance Marine Management people. Who knows what they could be?...perhaps

Based on the shape of the structures, that maybe my description and pic didn't convey, I don't think the purpose is to collect morts. If it is, it's a very inefficient design as, as I mentioned, there are a hundred times more dead chum stranded in the upstream shallows than (that can easily be counted by a dead pitch survey) than there are caught up in the weir.

Appreciate the reply/comment. And while I think  your suggestion is plausible, I don't think it's likely. But I could be wrong. Hence...perhaps. 

Ok sounds good, BC Steel spoons not Mortacs(different designs) both are good.
 I’m interested, the black ones not so much, but would take all as package, depending on pricing. Let me know, no rush.
Thanks!

$64 for 8 spoons.

Perhaps you both need a break.

We continuie our winning ways even with a lot of injuries.
