Fished at pegs today, I got my fish after putting in the time, lots of pinks being hooked and not to many Sockeye. As noted by other people yes the crowds were terrible, but you come to except that!
On the way in I noticed the right hand portion of the bar was closed off with cones, and upon coming out there was a bright light near the enterance and lots of people in costumes and tons of vehicles coming down with old equipment on it.
On a positive note, there was a actual fisheries officer checking people's licenses and catch on the way out. What REALLY pissed me off though was that he said he ticket book 'was full' tonight from people keep more Sockeye than there allowed. He said people were giving him the excuse that it's only open for a week so they got to keep lots. He went on to say this is why there getting reluctant to open fisheries and next year it will probably mean less oportunites if this keeps up. I wish they'd have a idiot detector or something to scan people when they drive in there before they go fishing, would make it better for all of us!
