Title: Fishing 1 hr sunrise and 1 hr before sunset...
Post by: CohoMan on November 03, 2018, 07:03:35 PM

I am asking for friends who went fishing today and hears someone adamant that the regulation has changed in regards to fishing hours. It has been 1 hr before sunrise and 1 hr after sunset. Apparently this guy started screaming at people fishing at 730a.m because sunrise was not quite there yet.

I mean this guy was very adamant that the reg has changed!!

Daylight hours
The hours that start one hour before sunrise and end one hour after sunset. Sunrise and sunset refer to the times for those events calculated by the National Research Council of Canada.

Its funny to see some guy who thinks they know it all and threatened to call DFO. Before making threats, make sure you know the reg.
