Impossible!  Salmon hate bikes. They can sense them and they stop biting.  ;D  It's either fossil fuels or stay at home.

Had a friend who lived in North Vancouver who had his driver's licence suspended. Had to walk to the Cap to fish. Complained the bus driver won't let him board the bus because he smelled of roe and beer. He likes his beer first thing in the morning

The reason why I asked for a lift today is because the buss driver once gave me a look of you got to be kidding me and closed the door. yep that put an end to the public transportation/going fishing relationship. I have taken guys out fishing when I have my car. I have done the bike deal but twice got my tires slashed with knife cuts and hooks intentionally stuck in them.

Be sure to file a complaint with Coast Mountain and follow up on it later on. That's total BS that drivers do that to people, and they wonder why they get harassed or assaulted at times.

Yeah we should all send an email to coast mountain complaining see if they do anything, maybe they will install rod holders instead of bike racks in the front ;D

They need the public to take transit so they can make money to provide a service. Yet they discriminate by what you're wearing or what your hobby is. Stupid if you ask me and an extremely poor way to run a public service.

If the clowns who run Transit run the province or country, we'd be bankrupt in a month.

I would have asked the driver if he would like to have the knife with him up front on the floor or something. Although that was a very weak excuse on his part as any persons hands with the right training can be a more effective weapon than a knife.

Sounds like ur friend hasn't learned much if his license is suspended and he reeks of beer in the morning, perhaps time for some rehab.  I don't blame the bus driver if he reeks so bad of booze, who wants to fish next to that guy anyways on the river, I don't.

Nice assumption.
Just because a guy cracks a couple beers in the am when they for one arnt driving or going to work doesn't meen he is a drunk mess.

There are more reasons than DUI to get a license suspended noobfisher, although DUI is the typical culprit.

Today i serve a Bavarian couple at work and they said that a glass of beer, in particular stouts, in the morning is great for you kidneys. Anyway that is just a way of seeing it. 

cheers!!

Took a bus from Coquitlam to Jericho Beach back in the 70's with a deflated inflatable 2 man boat.
Two plastic red/blue oars along with foot pump.

After having great fun in waves & soaking in the suns rays , bused all the way back.
Absolutely no problems getting on the bus.

Do not think anyone should try the same today by what I've read in your posts.

Awww, sorry. I checked a few times that morning to see if you had answered because I was heading out there. Did you get out? Did you catch? I did not.

Also I sometimes like to have a big thermos full of earl grey tea with bailies on a Sunday AM at the river (when someone else is driving.) Just adds a nice warm touch to the morning. It's your day off to enjoy yourself after all!  ::) Just be safe!

Congrats on being a douche. So sick and tired of guys getting ripped for grammar on here.
Get over it!
