If this is about something FM said in another thread, take it with a grain of salt. That guys got no shortage of opinions, yet I dont think hes posted a single first-hand report this year and Ive followed the Vancouver Reports thread fairly closely. Its always second-hand info parroted from a guides social media, or a story from 20 years ago bragging about how he used to slay them. I have nothing against the guy personally, just observing what I see on here... All Im saying is consider the source.
As far as taking a kid fishing goes, I say good on ya. Start em young, teach them to respect the resource, and if they develop a passion for it later in life you can take satisfaction in knowing you had a helping hand.
If you ink 30 fish on your licence in a year, thats more than enough to feed your whole family. Having a toddler out there just to take a few extra fish is nothing but blatant greed, and as with anything in life, there are always some who will abuse the privilege. In my boat when I fish with friends, I let them play most of the fish, and usually send them home with the fish as well. Every fish gets written on a licence and sometimes that happens to be my licence. At the end of the day, youll know which side of the line you stand on. Its as simple as that!
