The Mac beach stop and drop poaching

[Old Blue]

Anyone have any news contacts....put some pressure on the situation. Government never likes bad publicity especially in an election year.

Play devil's advocate ALL you want.....this operation is NO mystery. They pick up and drop off at McDonald....TOO many eyes to walk past at Milltown.

I applaud them if they DID go to the Gulf Islands AND took their ONE fish of rockies or lings. But when I have seen them at Seymour Landing, Brigade Bay, Southeast corner of Anvil ALL in closed areas with a bunch of rods down jigging pulling in rockfish.....I am pretty sure that's poaching. I have called DFO on them more than a few times and know a number of others who also have.

Okay. Fair enough. But the original poster just said he saw guests carrying garbage bags of fish away and I didn't really see how this equated to poaching necessarily. I have seen these boats over on the on the gulf islands quite a bit. If the stories are true it won't be long before that fishery collapses.
