Unfortunately DFO is again proven not acting based on science but political pressure. They upgrade the run size to 20 million with much surplus for recreational fishermen and yet they are not opening the tidal Fraser for recreational fishermen,  especially kids and families to enjoy this easier and closer fishery at this time of high gas cost. Didn't they promote fishing in the city？

[Bavarian Raven]

They’ll open it once the run is over.
Good old Canada. Where everyone is equal but some are more equal. :/

Probably starts thinning out in Mid to late September.  It's not the peak right now.  There will be days when more than 1 Million pinks swim through.  That'll be the day to be fishing, but nobody knows which day it's going to be, so you'll have to go everyday to find out.

When DFO open the Fraser for retention.

[Darko]

They just posted the panel update ......rec for pink salmon opening is under consideration......as usual

at this point we should consider rebelling and go fishing anyway. Government will only change if it is forced to

Honestly that thought does cross my mind but obviously we wont act on such thoughts.....
I wont be surprised if there are some already doing that.....I read a  post here in fwr about an old man bar fishing for chinook in fraser when it was closed (its an old post)...old man didnt care about any dfo ....he just wanted to fish like old times

Sad truth, but really hoping they open before the long weekend

[wildmanyeah]

Regional Director General cancelled the rec pink opening last weekend.  Local DFO staff pushed hard, stayed late and have now been completely shut of decision making.

Said they have not been authorised to talk about a future opening. PERIOD

[canoeboy]

Wait what? The local dfo have been shut out of it? That sounds like a political move to me.

ITs been confirmed the First Nations have asked for the Rec Fishery to be Delayed.  At a High level
