Went to Sasamat lake this mourning and there was a guy fishing with two rods , then went to buntzen lake for a bit and the same thing 1 guy fishing 2 rods :o, now isn't that against the regulations,or don't people care anymore.
Just a thought!!!!!!!!!
-
Against the regs.
-
Yes fish_for_ life, that is true but these guys were fishing from the dock at both places.
-
Yes thats agaisnt the regs. If your in a boat and by yourself you can have 2 rods but not from shore.
-
Yeh, as far as I know, you can have 2 rods per person if you are alone in a boat on a lake.
Is this the same for the salt ? I hope not, I used to fish from piers with 3-4 lines in the water. (2 long distance rods, 1 short distance, and a handline) But I don't do it any more. But, I have seen guys trolling around 4 lines on riggers with one person in the boat.
-
you are allow 2 rods for 1 guy... As per the regs page 9 it says " it is unlawful to use more than one line, EXCEPT a person who is ALONE in a boat on a lake may angle with 2 lines "
There you go...

I saw my uncle fishing with 2 rods once. It was illegal...and he worked for the fisheries department!
But if it's in a lake (not salt-water, not stream) in BC, and you're in a boat (not from shore), by yourself (not with someone else on board), THEN it's legal.
Are there any lawyers out there since I think I'm going to need to bring one of you along on all my future fishing trips!!

Spud,out in the chuck{saltwater} i believe there is no limit to the rods you can use as long as everyone has a license.Any body else know any different???
