Can anybody tell me where I find a map and rules for esperanza inlet, the only map I can find is for Nootka. Thanks
 
I don't think they have printed the new regs for 2010 yet. They usually post special regs for coho and chinook that come into effect on July 15th. Someone at DFO must have fallen asleep.
 
Here --I will let you figure out the Esperanza sub areas. They are on the DFO website

The rest of it is easy to fugure out!! Jusr dance nakid around the campfire and chant "Lucky beer is pizz!!" and all will be revealed...

Or jusr call the Campbell River office and ask them "wushappenin?"

(Hey -- dont blame me-- its windy and I cant go fishing and the lawnmower ran out of gas!! so I have nothing better to do on a Sunday afternoon than waste time here!! :D:D:D)
