You would rather have me go out on the cap and have no idea about the regs?
You missed the point, as always.
If someone from out of town who is asking regulations on this forum, people would provide the information, just like others who have done above in this thread.
You on the other hand, are a local who have been fishing here regularly. You should not have an excuse for not being able to find the regulations yourself. For you to come here and ask others to find the information for you simply because you are lazy but well aware of where to get it yourself, that's how ignorance was defined.
What does this website preach?
http://www.fishingwithrod.com/about_us.htmlFishing with Rod is an online angling magazine based in British Columbia, Canada. We cater anglers of all ages, races and skill levels. It was launched in May, 2001 and has been one of the more popular fishing websites in BC. Our objectives are to keep you updated with the latest information on fishing condition, current fishing-related issues and fishing-related events. We devote half of our effort on fishing and the other half on conservation.
Im sorry you feel im some kinda lazy bugger when like you i do get up early every day for work, and i do go without a week of rest, wake up and go fishing with no or very little sleep.
You missed another point, again. My previous post was aimed at the comment that you made earlier:
Too lazy to look this up but allowe me to take another guess
If every angler chooses to be lazy and second guess on the regulations, what would happen?
You misinterpreted my reply by thinking that I am generalizing your overall way of life as a lazy one. You missed the point.
What really ticked me off in your comment was, you're now representing a sportfishing retail outlet, and one of your duties is to make sure anglers who come in the shop, experienced or not, are outfitted with the correct equipment and information. You don't need to know all the regulations, but you
SHOULD know where to get it from, and know that you
SHOULD read it before going out. Fish Assassin and birdman may provide you what regulations they know or what regulations they think they know, but do you believe all second hand information you read on the internet?
This website and I are not telling you how you should live your life, but how you should conduct as a responsible angler. However you want to behave out there, is up to you in the end. If you want to second guess the regulations instead of making the effort to read it yourself, then you'll have to live with the consequences.
Not long ago, as I recall, you were rather vocal about how DFO enforcement is not effective when it comes to reducing the number of fishery violations:

The point of this post and the previous one are, fishery regulations are readily available for people to view. They are even sorted out to individual systems to prevent confusion. It takes five minutes to be informed, make good use of what's available, instead of whining about what's not.
