This website is here to educate.  I did not break any regs.  I was out to catch Coho, and I knew the regs for the fish I was targetting.  I always release any fish I can't identify or am not targeting.

my motto for hunting, shoot anything that moves.  LMAO.   ::)

Shoot anything that moves? You actually have your hunting license?

Why would anyone going fishing without first studying the regs ?

Would you go hunting  without knowing what you may or may not shoot ?

Crazy stuff happening on our rivers.

Would be great to see DFO seize fishing gear and vehicles for violations.  DFO calls a tow truck and you get your vehicle back a few weeks later after a fine is paid.

I guess seizing car is not really doable if guys are on the water. Surely seizing rod/reel and tackle box is pretty doable.

I have a lot of days that i go and strictly plan on CnR only, and i never use bait. When i go to a river like the vedder that i've been fishing for 10 years,   i sometimes don't always look. But if i go to any river that i don't frequently visit or am planning on keeping anything i will check night before and usually when i get their one my phone.

And i have seen then seize a vehicle and boat before so it is possible. Never knew what the guy did but it didn't look like he had a good day on the ocean. a guy at the launch said he shot a seal, but who knows.
And yes i believe that they should take peoples rods gear and fine them for certain things.

Its pretty simple, learn to identify fish, look at regs, fish with in the regs, and don't be a beak on the river.

Fished the upper river opposite the road side of the limit and worked our way down a few hundred yards. The rain did nothing for the level but gave the water a little color until 1000 and then gin clear. The water is about as low as it ever gets and there are not many hiding spots for the fish. The jiggers on the road side caught a couple coho but for us roe worked OK but overall fishing has slowed considerably. Lots of red coho in the system and everything today was wild.You really notice all the garbage, man left debris and the stench of rotting fish when the water is so low. we need rain NOW

Fished lower river this morning, water was up a little bit and had some nice colour. Hooked 4, lost 1, released 2 wilds and 1 big beauty hatch for dinner tonight. 1 chum as well that broke my 10lbs leader very easily.

Was still a bit low for ideal coho fishing.  Amazing the difference from last year.  Was above 2 metres for a long period. This fishes much better and is ideal to find that pocket water.
