Just reading through the DFO's regs on Chinook which say the following.
5.There is an annual limit of 10 adult chinook from all non-tidal waters. All retained adult chinook must be recorded immediately on the back of your freshwater angling licence. An “adult chinook” in Region 2 is defined as being over 50 cm except in the following areas where an “adult chinook” is defined as being over 62 cm:
A) the Fraser River downstream of the powerline crossing approximately 1 km above the Agassiz/Rosedale bridge from Sep 01 - Dec 31,
B) the Chilliwack/Vedder River (including Sumas River); the Harrison River and the Capilano River.
On the Veder, the limit is 4 per day, only 1 over 62 CM.
So, am I correct in thinking I can take 4 per day (theoretically, I wouldn’t want 4 in a day) - 1 being over 62 CM - and I only need to record the one that’s over 62 CM on my license as it’s an "Adult" due to its length, or do all 4 need to be recorded?

You only have to record the one "adult" (over 62cm long) on your licence, the other three fish need to be under 62cm long.

Right on, Thanks Rodney
