Ok. Im generally a river fisherman. This said, I do get out in the salt from time to time. A spring trip out to Nootka for a week. An annual family trip in and around area 12 for a week, and the odd day around Vancouver/Horseshoe Bay. My week trip in Area 12 is 10 days away and Im trying to catch up on the local salt water regs.
[xx(][:0][B)][8)][xx(]....Can they make it any harder? This is just my oppinion, but I think the powers that be dont even know what the f**K is going on at any given time. I think its almost time for some "de-regulation". They say that recreational licences are on the decline. Well know wonder! Im sometimes scared to wet a line, wondering to myself "am I legal in this spot?". Now I also have to contend with all the rockfish closers as well as the mind boggling "in-season" salmon regs? It almost seems like DFO would rather us not even be on the water, so lets baffle them with BS and maybe we can get some revenue with fines. I bet the fish cops dont even know the majority of the regs.
Sorry. Just ranting.
