Title: single hook
Post by: Britguy on August 21, 2008, 07:55:17 PM

can anyone clear this up
i read this and was confused :-\

Gear permitted: One line per angler only; and single barbless hook only. A single barbless hook is a barbless hook with only one point. A treble hook is not considered to be a single hook.As per subsection 8(2) of the British Columbia Sport Fishing Regulations (1996). A person may angle in the tidal portion of the Fraser River with two hooks, artificial lures or artificial flies, attached to a fishing line. (Bar rigs with single barbless hooks are acceptable)

Should it read "two hook (not hooks) artificial lures or artificial flies, attached to a fishing line."

No because two hook can be construed to mean a double hook-like some Euros use in their flies-as shown.

well from what i read then you can use:-
one line with a bar rig with two spreaders (one single hook on each spreader)
or
one line with two artificial lures (one single hook each lure)
or
one line with two artificial flies (one single hook each fly)
on the tidal section  :-\

That is correct.

I use a bar type rig but without the spreader bars.
