    April 1 Fishing Regs-sell your Boats!!

    We do have a right to fish, it is called a regulated right, and it is because fish, all of them, are a common property resource, which exists under federal law, and under the constitution. We do have a defined part of the TAC for groundfish, and an allocation agreement we helped to build for...

    April 1 Fishing Regs-sell your Boats!!

    I asked earelier, and so far have had no reply, which I find interesting. If you call for money to fight DFO in court, if you say that we are not fighting something because we have no money, then you just have an undefined wish....we want to be able catch fish more often....you don't go raising...

    Prawn Limit Decreased to 125 April 1st 2020

    One of the key parts of that campaign was that at the end of the meeting we had a desk where people could, and did fill out pre-printed post cards where they added their own comments, which was important, we did not pre-write them or give pre-written comments...and we flooded Parliament with...

    Cherry point??

    Cherry point or Boatswain Bank has provided a beach fishery on fly and spoons for the last 20 years, and no they are not all the Millstream fish at all. A very few of the Millstream run which is part of the Shawnigan Lake School program are all clipped, but only a few 10 or 20 are recovered...

    Proposal By DFO - Changes to Prawn Daily Rec. Limit Being Considered

    Do not confuse this attempt at DFO Shellfish Management with science, or logic, or fair debate, this is an inside attempt to sole a perceived problem by making an arbitrary decision by the senior Director to solve what he sees as a problem that cutting our access can solve. Bombarding the...
