I believe that enforcement MUST be increased on these local lakes as the same group of anglers go from site to site.
At Como Lake, i have witnessed many double haul limits. Fish cops were called and they checked some anglers. Most had left by the time they arrived, but there was some education given re regs. More signage is required, possible in many languages. 
Be vigilant when witnessing any infractions, call em up.

Thank you Rodney for keeping us informed. WOW another 1000 fish for Lafarge. That makes 3000 in about 6 weeks.

This is how the management keeps you grumpy fishermen in Coquitlam/Ridge Meadows happy until ice-off in the Interior.

Hi Rod

Regarding Rice lake in particular, are these stocking numbers much higher compared to years past? Was the rate of attrition over the winter higher than normal? Seems like they've dumped 1000 of them in there per month since this past November.

Cheers

Hi nvloc, yes I believe more fish are being stocked so far this season. A big batch is being put in this week because the Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC will be doing the launch of "Fishing in the City" event this Saturday (the weather forecast looks great! 19C expected... but I'll believe it when I see/feel it ). These entry level lakes are designed to get more people into fishing in the city and the society is really pushing it to increase participation. Expect to see at least a couple more stockings until the Family Fishing Weekend in mid June.

Due to time constraint, Rolley, Mike, Como and Sasamat will not be stocked today as they were originally planned. They will most likely be stocked just after the long weekend instead. I will update when that happens.
