Hey guys,
I just made the mistake of posting this in the saltwater forum. I think this is the appropriate place for it.
I just spent the past 2 1/2 months fishing in S.C. Alaska and had a great time. Before that, I was living here in B.C. for almost a full year but only got to go out 2-3 times river fishing. Once with Milo who was kind enough to show me and my buddy some tips and tricks.
So really, I learnt how to salmon fish in rivers in Alaska. On every single river I went to in AK, there were ALWAYS people, if not EVERYBODY who was trying to catch using the 'flossing' technique. We did it for reds, kings and silvers or sockeye, springs and cohos.
It happened on occasion that fish would get snagged, but when done properly I was hooking 9 out of 10 fish in the mouth.
Last year, when I was in B.C., I remember reading very very heated debates on another forum about this type of fishing, but I never really read the whole threads. I figured, I hardly even knew what it was so I didnt want to form my opinion about from reading posts.
Now, I have a question about it.
- Do people 'floss' fish here in B.C. or is it illegal?
Thanks in advance.
