First time visited Amberside river mouth this morning, still saw lots of fish snagged by tail/belly/back， pulled in and bonked straightway...pretty frustrated.

If he caught something, would he be allowed to keep it?

If he had his stamp.

If he had his stamp.

And a cooler...  And the employers permission as he is on company time... If he cuts himself cleaning the fish...  Liability....   I'd let him,  lol.  But I'm a awesome to work for,  lol

They probably get plenty of fish when they confiscate fish, remember when cops would take your beer and weed, ya that didn't go into evidence either.

from what I know about cops and beers - they make you to empty your full cans . not sure about confiscating empties

Not sure where you are from, but they always made us pour it out, and stomp and grind buds in to the dirt.

Why did that frustrate you? Only you can choose how to respond to other people.

If you accidentally foul hook a salmon in the ocean, you can keep it.

If fish are stacked up at the mouth of the cap, almost any technique will occasionally foul hook fish (buzz bomb, spoon, jig, fly - weighted or sink tip). There isn't enough flow to fish a dead drifted jig, which is one of the few methods that almost never foul hooks a fish.

At first I thought it was ok too.

But, this can be found at the end under 'reminders'.

'It is illegal to wilfully foul hook a salmon. If you accidentally foul hook a salmon in the ocean, you can keep it. If you foul hook a salmon, wilfully or accidentally, in any lake or stream, including the tidal parts of coastal streams, you must release it immediately.'

Ambleside would fall into 'tidal part of coastal stream', as would Seymour Mouth. Not sure what Furry Creek would qualify as.

I though that was pretty important.

There is a boundary where the coastal stream ends, so to say all of Ambleside is part of a stream is wrong.

[halcyonguitars]

I guess maybe past the rocky point or whatever. Everyone seems to fish the estuary. I guess it's typically ambiguous. But if an estuary isn't part of a coastal stream, what is?

[halcyonguitars]

What is the boundary, btw, how is it marked?

Always took ours from back in the day,  didn't care if we were drinking and driving (not me) they just wanted to jack our stuff  didn't even check for a driver's licenses... Now they just steal from drug dealers/criminals... This is all in the GVRD area.... Also rural areas too now that I think of it...

You should be asking,  what is a regulations book and  how do I read it,  lol.

[halcyonguitars]

The boundary between freshwater and saltwater at Ambleside is clearly defined by the bridge, in the regs.

What is the clear boundary between plain old saltwater and 'tidal part of coastal stream'?

As I'm sure you are aware, the regs can appear conflicting in some cases, like the one we're discussing for example.

So, can you help with that?

[doja]

A coastal stream simply drain into a ocean...  Tidal Fraser seems a fair example as it's a salt mix but clearly tidal as per regulations... A lack of any salt would be a clear line but good luck finding it,  lol.  This is my thoughts.

Ambleside is actually pretty easy thinking about it...  Marine drive where the steep drop is into the salt water (fresh water by def still though I believe)
