Can someone clarify the sizes of salmon from Oakbay to Sooke for me I know these are 2 different areas but the rules are usually in place for both areas from what I have heard in the past.
From what I understand its
Wild between 45-67cm? But you can have 1 fish over 67cm?
Hatchery 45cm-anysize?
Does the daily limit of 2 count for spring in general or could I have 2 wild and 2 hatchs?
Coho closed until octoberish?
I find DFOs website extremely confusing and hard to find what I am looking for and I am sure many of you know all of this off hand.
Thanks in advance
 
From June 19 to July 15 the chinook limit is 2 per day over 45 cm,
one of which can be over 67 cm (hatchery or wild/unclipped). This
applies for the area between Ten Mile Point (Cadboro Point) and
Jordan River. In other words, 2 under 67 cm or 1 under and 1 over 67 cm. After July 15, limits return to 'normal' - 2 chinook over 45 cm
for this area.
 
Ah, don't be so sure about back to normal after July 15th. Have seen a posting that suggests further review and possible restrictions after July 15th.
 
Think we may see wild slot restrictions after July 15
i.e. back to march 1 - june 19 scenario
hope not , but ??
