Years ago, I used to love to mooch live Herring for Salmon in Burrard Inlet. I moved to the Island 18 years ago and live bait was off the radar. So last weekend a bunch of us were having Beers and the talk turned to what is the best bait. The group was split as to whether the use of live bait was still legal in salt water. A quick look at the regs didn't help. So is it still legal to mooch with live bait?
