Lotsa springs, kept one big male chum.

That last picture looks like my side walk...feel free to leave coho on it anytime Stratocaster.

Great day for me, we landed 4 coho, 3 hatchery and one big wild, along with 6 silver chum and 1 showing some bars. Lost a dozen or so coho along with a few springs. All fish caught on blades and one nice hatch doe on a blue fox, all in the lower. Pics to follow after I find my camera cable

There was a man last night who was convinced that Chums were closed and telling others that it was, and that if he saw them retain one, he was going to call DFO and have their vehicles taken away. It was sorted out with a trusty smartphone. Just a reminder to everyone to check the regs themselves before heading out and not to rely on people out on the water.

Not sure where you checked but Chum retention is 0 on the Chilliwack River.

I'm almost sure that up until a couple of days ago when I checked it, that table still says 1 per day for the daily quota of chum salmon. It must have been changed recently...

I was fishing the upper river yesterday at around 11:30am, 2 officers show up to check the licence and the lady officer told me chum retention is one per day

Another example of conflicting information by DFO

As I suspected, the information was changed recently.

That also explains why some officers were not aware of the changes (usually the notice gets faxed over).

Last week, I requested the Fraser River salmon daily quotas to be updated because they haven't (discussed in a thread in the general discussion area) and the manager said an email was sent to the person responsible for changing/correcting the content. I guess there were other changes needed beside the Fraser River section.

You mean they changed it to 1 from 4 a day, right?  Not back to 4 from 1?

Back to 4 from 1. Previous daily quote of 1 must have been a mistake as the change has never been talked about the Sport Fishing Advisory Committee.
