In this photo, I can hardly believe any fish released will survive.

Come on... Don't be so fast to judge, Ralph will tell you exactly why all of them would survive lol...

What's the saying ... a picture is worth a thousand words?

Yes, but those could be a thousand mis-informed words.
 
When was it taken? What was open/closed at the time? Where was it taken: Fraser, Skeena, US/Skagit?

I'm by no means an apologist for illegal/unethical behaviour but there's not enough information to jump up on a  soapbox.

check the gill net, do you think any fish can survive after being released? Let alone none of them will be released.

And 2015's selective pink beach fishery lol...

And check this and listen to what they said: most of the chinook caught were already dead.

There you have it people! A picture from 2013 all while the river was open for the sporties!
Only difference now, it’s closed for the sporties in 2018 as the rape and pillage continues!

The only conservation measure taking place is the extremely rare purple ant that lives in the rocky gravel at boat launches along the Fraser River! It’s only the sturgeon fishing group crushing them now at the launches! 80% reduction in mortality for the ant! It’s a win / win for conservation of the ant!

those are pinks. We don't know anything about this - please note the fish are in the water & perhaps non-targeted species had been released.

Your word Ralph. Even you realize social media rules the world now.

Perhaps someone or organization should organize a demonstration in front of the DFO offices in Vancouver. Call the media. Get the word out there that dfo is allowing this to happen.

No point with a reconciliation liberal agenda. Will just be preceved as rascist rednect that are crying.

We’re getting to the point where fishing in the mainstream of the Fraser may be done for all sectors.

Lots of runs do for Sara listings or reviews over the next 10 years. Onnce we are off the water the ENGO will stat going after these fisheries.
