Hooked 12 landed 5 today. Pretty nice day out, got to teach a guy how to fish which was nice.

Is tomorrow, 17th, the last day? I thought the notice said opening for Sept 1-18, so Monday the last day?

It's open until an hour after sunset on the 18th.

I'll finally try to get out tomorrow morning for my first and only outing for Fraser pinks this run...sometimes life and their responsibilities don't allow for fishing

This means 1 more day Monday?

Braid will twist up like a corkscrew if you don’t use a swivel to tie your leader onto the main line.

A swivel has a bearing in the center and is meant to reduce line twist. A knot can't do that.

I don't have an issue with line twist.  Maybe because I use mostly spoons and buzz bombs.  My last reel had same braid on it for several years without twisted line causing problems.  I would also be surprised if the torque required to spin a swivel would be less than what is needed to twist braided line.

I would assume date ranges are inclusive because first day of fishing was Sept 1.

That's my interpretation. DFO could have avoided any confusion by the addition of one word: inclusive.

[Darko]

it is inclusive you can fish tomorrow until midnight

check to make sure the 1/2 hour before sunrise and sunset rule applies or not. I believes it applies to most of our local streams open to salmon fishing

Salt water anglers use FG knot for giants like bluefin tuna and marlin...they're not bothered with the twists on 100lb braid, why should we be bothered for much thinner lines below 20lb...I'm running 10ft leader (12lb seaguar invizx）on 5lb braid, never had any problem about line twisting, not even when I was using 15lb braid when I started gear fishing...also I don't use swivels on my spoons.

Using spinners without a swivel will twist up your line. For me anyways

I've missed most of this Tidal Fraser opening, but was determined to get one day in before it closes on Tuesday, so went back to where my dad and I used to fish since the mid 90s.

[Fish Assassin]

Good for you Rodney. Your dad would be pleased.

Perfect.

Hey, I left my black Patagonia sling bag this morning after giving a few new fishing guys some tassie lures on Dyke Road and 3rd fishing area in Richmond.
