Yesterday while out bar fishing in Agassiz/Rosedale area saw drift netting going on. We phoned it in and was told by the OB line a 12 hour opening. When I got home was told it was for a 3 hour opening only from 11 to 2 for 15 chinook. In 2 sets we counted 11 and then a third set started as we left at 4. We are investigating why there was this difference in timing.
FOC is now telling us that the opening was to 8 pm. Frank was given a notice it was to 2.????? ::)
Franks error, it was to 8. They were given the opening for 15 chinooks but we had counted 11 before 4. Maybe some were sockeye but then they were to use a mesh size that would limit the sockeye catchs. :( Some questions that I have asked FOC to answer through my SFAC chair.
