People will continue to bottom bounce, change the weight and its not possable then.
So you're saying that fishing with spoons, jigs, fly fishing or any method other than bar fishing is unacceptable?

If sockeye encounters are not reduced to ensure the adequate passage of
sockeye, then further actions such as spot closures or a "no fishing for
salmon" restriction may be implemented.
Variation Order Number:  2009-312



Wow.

WOW, dfo will suggest what you should do  ??? , but won't order what you shouldn't do  ::) .

Hmm, compliance this year ::)

Ya, right.

Sounds like they want the river closed and may get there way.

I find it hard to believe that they would close the Fraser to salmon fishing,with all the tourism dollars at stake.All they need to do is limit the leader length and it's done,the socks will pass through unmolested.

my opinion is that catch and release should have a limit; this is the reason bb looks bad;
guys claiming 30-40 fish a day...
the pinks will have to pass a butchery, now that bb is closed;
you should catch your quota (release it if you like) and leave the spot...
in some countries in europe catch and release is banned; you can release your fish but it counts in daily quota

there is a saying about a fox and the sour grapes\
flyfishing can't catch a sockeye, thus catching it there must be something wrong...

does dfo web site have a definition for the specified fishing methods?
i wouldn't like to fish in error...

bb was sport, casting a 3 ounces weight was fun; bar fishing is kind of chatting couple of hours with your fishin'buddy

Nothing could be farther from the truth, ion.
Flossing with a fast sinking tip is even more effective than bottom bouncing.

Just go to Pegleg north in early September to check it out. ;)
