My wannabe iron noggin dreams ? I don’t even know the the man why would I aspire to be him ? It was a legitimate question I was asking you Ralph. You have always struck me as a pretty intelligent man Ralph but your self awareness is seriously lacking. Don’t you ever wonder why you’re almost always at odds with someone on here ? You have treated people in a derogatory fashion on this forum for years. Acting like you’re above everyone. Talking down to people. Trying to make people look stupid. You did it to me once way back. Unprovoked. I wish I could remember the conversation but I can’t. You remind me of a couple of characters, Dr Charles Emerson Winchester or perhaps Dr Niles Crane. As far the “Ralphy” that just slipped out. No ill intent.

Get a room you guys this is about Fraser pinks. Not a pencil length debate !!!!         

[iblly]

I believe this section is called “general discussion” but yes you’re right. I don’t usually get into these sorts of discussions. My bad. I sure hope they open the pinks so I can wander down to the river and get a few.

Who are you?  Are you attending these meetings? Are the meeting open to anyone? 
The funny part is all of these people in the meetings are probably getting paid excessively with the little guys money from buying Salmon tags......

The guys I know that attend these meeting don’t get paid a cent to be there. Government employees get paid but the rest of the crew do it out of their love for sports fishing , the kindness of their heart and for some of them to protect their business interests.
Takes a special person to be able to sit there and listen to the ineptitude that calls itself the department of fisheries and oceans.

For those still reading this discussion thread, I have apologized to iblly via a PM and acknowledged his comments about my personality and reactions. Like a few others here I can do better in such conversations.

We ALL have room for improvement Ralph. Nobody’s perfect, most certainly myself included. Thank you and tight lines !

X2 Rodney is under alot of stress right now. Let's not add to it by the silly debate.

[iblly]

I know right ! God forbid people are being civil to one another. Crazy to think that a thread on FWR could go off topic. Maybe if you didn’t comment it wouldn’t get derailed ? My apologies Rod.

[chardeemacdenis]

Should delete this whole thread.

Start a new one

They money from the salmon tags, goes to pacific salmon foundation, think it’s around 7 million

Not quite.  The number of salmon tags sold in any given year is about 2 to 3 hundred thousand (with bump ups for pink or sockeye openings on the tidal Fraser).  Given that the price of the tags has remained at about 6 bucks over the years gives us a total far less than 7 million.  Additionally, PSF has only received 100% of the tag sales since 2014.  Before that, they only received a small portion (about 20 to 30%) of total tag sales revenues.

[wildmanyeah]

Yeah you’re right according to their site it is about 1.2 million a year . I can’t remember where I herd the 7 million from perhaps it’s how they leverage it or perhaps I was thinking of the total amount from salt water licence sales and that instead of going into general revenue it should be directed to salmon on the west coast.

the non-tidal conservation surcharge is $16.49

bought my 5 year old nephew a spinning rod. was hoping to take him out as he is dyeing to catch a salmon. pink fishery is by far the easiest way to get people into fishing. hoping it will open soon. weak that the opening didn't happen this weekend. hopefully this week.

[Jacobleboe]

damn y'all are rly getting heated in a fishing form lmfao

[roeman]

Copy and paste from Albion Test for Springs.  Keep the pinks closed and open non tidal Fraser for Springs.  Set line/Bar fishing only... The numbers are more than enough to support an opening.
