I know we must fish down stream from highway 1 but in a royal park mall on a native reserve if this is true that limits it from high way 1 to highway 99 right ?
-
read regs again , it says pretty clear that you can fish mouth of cap (tidal) .
-
Yes I did read them but I will refer you to read them again as it also states permission needed to fish reserve land
-
Eager to get to the Fishing Reports are ya? Haha
-
What do you mean ? I get my fishing reports from else where
-
Yes I did read them but I will refer you to read them again as it also states permission needed to fish reserve land
So u saying that reserve is from hwy 99 to mouth ?

Yes according to this map.

That would be exactly what I was thinking and just wanted to clarify thank you
-
After seeing the PDF, it's interesting to me that "Block B" which is South West of the RR bridge, is Band land. I see people fishing in that area all the time, even though it's pretty shallow. Are there markers where the Native land starts and I've just missed them? Thanks.
-
just cuz it is band land doesnt mean it cant be fished it means you must get permission

Seems like a lot of your questions can be answered easily with a 20 second google search.
-
Not entirely when you try multiple ways and can't find an answer most people end up asking in a public forum I mean isn't that what this place is for any ways
-
I agree with Zacrum. Too many grumpy old posters. You can pretty much get the answer for anything in google if you look hard enough, that is why forums like these are STILL useful to avoid trolling through thousands of older posts.
-
Drives me nuts when people tell someone to use the search function and stop asking questions. Pretty much everything you can think of has been hashed out on this site at least once.
It would make for a pretty quiet forum... People need to hear THEIR questions answered specifically, just makes us feel better. I don't even know where the search bar is on here?? Usually I google and this website pops up anyways and that's how I get around.
-
Exactly and even when you Google it and it brings you to this site it's not the same question it's similar but not the same details

As per the NRCAN map, Federal reserve lands (designated as Capilano I.R. #5) includes land on both sides of the Capilano estuary and if the Nation wished to be dicks about it could prevent people fishing from their lands on either sides. They don't they only ristrict people from fishing above the rail bridge to the highway bridge and on the east side of the estuary. So pay them their due respect that we are allowed to fish on their land, live and play within their and other FN's traditional territories. I understand that it would probably to be too much trouble to enforce, as well as helping to keep the peace with the privileged and entitled west vancouverite dog walkers, considering their favorite dog walking park is also on FN lands.
Same for the Soowhalie Nation, many people do not realize that they are fishing on FN lands on the north side of the Vedder/Chilliwack river (not just the well known south side), in the area of the on-the way-store. Again check out the NRCAN maps.
If you want to know exactly where FN lands are located anywhere in BC (or Canada) use this plug in for google earth.

Thank you and that's what I was getting at so that I can contact the right bands and get permission
