Bar fish out anyone?
« on: July 05, 2007, 10:55:56 AM »
Hey Guys and gals,

How's about organizing a bar fishout, that focuses on the bars that are currently seeing high numbers of BBing?

Now that DFO has put some teeth in their demands, I'd suggest splitting up and spreading bar rigs all across these bars systematically, so the fraser stays open...

I can't be involved unfortunately for the next three weeks, but I can help out with something in August.

Any interest?

Cheers,
Nicole

 ;D ;D ;D ;D







Of course, this would be removable once the sockeye are actually open, and of course, Im only joking with the whole idea

Since when was snagging just a question of ethics and personal choice?

I've done this a couple times in the past, and am always looking to get out and make new friends. Let me know where and when and hopefully the wife hasn't already made plans.

I'm in as well.  I have no problem with this at all.  Mind you like 2:40 said it will be a bitter pill to watch the nets go by!! ::) :D  Do you guys think that my 11'6" Trophy XL Medium 10-20lb rated would do the trick as a bar rod or should I just use my Sturgeon technium?  I would just buy another, but $2000 into the truck this weekend has put and end to any new fishing gear dreams!! ???

Is the fraser going to have enough clarity to bar fish?

I have heard of a couple fish being hooked barfing.  Just a question though, are we allowed to use roe right now?  Cause, perhaps some big Roesacks hooked onto the end of the hook would help?  Anyone tried this when fishing water with less than 6" vis? :)

Sounds good, but I am guessing that it would be a rather large hunk of wool!!! ;D  Actually, that does sound like a good idea now that I have thought about it a second time!!! ;D ;D

Making a statement like that could cause even more fighting which would really shut down the river. I like Nuggy idea. Why not show people how it is done and how fun barfing really is. Would that not be more productive then a statement.

Yes, august is the soonest I can go out, I have house guests coming in from Slovakia, and other guests coming in this weekend as well, and I'm unfortunately booked up. I have a date with some sedges on the 28th ;)

But you guys go ahead, don't let me stop ya! Just make a list with the bars, and a schedule... Then people can fill it out, and say which day they'll be out and at which bar.

I'll update a master list if you guys want...

Cheers,
Nicole

I'd love to give it a go, but I need to get a bar rod and reel first.

Anyone out there got spare ?? or suggestions for what to buy..... Not to expensive or I'll be grounded by the boss
