Number of rods per angler
« on: August 17, 2017, 03:39:07 PM »

Guys,

For lake fishing I've read the following from Rod:

"Please remember that for lake fishing, if you are fishing from shore, you are only allowed to use ONE rod. If you are fishing alone in a boat, then you are permited to use two rods."

What are the rules at rivers (especially the tidal Fraser) and at salt water beaches?

Thank you!

In tidal waters, there’s no limit to the number of fishing rods you can use. In rivers and streams, including the tidal waters of the Fraser River, there’s a limit of one rod per angler

same as from boat..as many rods as you like..only exception tidal fraser...only 1 rod allowed..we often use 2 rods when bottom fishing from ocean piers or shoreline to target different species or fish different areas of the sea bed (e.g. near vs far, rock vs.sand)

Can I lay a row of hundred rods along shore with one license?

That's how I would read it. Always found it a bit strange to permit literally unlimited rods per angler.

Its also illegal if you arent attending your rod right? So beyond 2 maybe 3 max from shore and you wont be able to watch them all?
