So bloody typical of DFO. Can't seem to get anything right. How can they expect angler compliance with the regulations when the regulations themselves are often outdated and contradictory ? Won't stand up to a court challenge.

Pathetic is the right word rodney. Makes it hard for the people that actually want to follow the rules.

Until bc is in charge of our coast it will be more of the same.

No retention on chum, eh.  Not that you're likely to catch one on the Tidal Fraser, but I find that strange considering the commercial openings for chum.

Very large opening in the open ocean at the moment, but your right nothing in Fraser as that would "look bad". Better to have the opening away from the eyes of the general public in the lower mainland.
This way we can all blame other user groups for the collapse and not the Fraser River Commercial fleet.

There were only two guys fishing at the bend on yesterday's afternoon tide Rodney, far cry from even a couple years ago.

that's in Nanaimo's outer harbour. The Nanaimo River is proving an exception and having a good return. Other than that there hasn't been  a 'large' opening in the Strait.

Why not blame the ones responsible for the collapse of the thompson steelhead?
Top of the decision makers, DFO! Opening for chum when steelhead are in the fraser river?
Sorry, I know persons in dfo that are ashamed and do not even want to look at their updated notices.
Further more, follow the money and the trail will lead you to the culprits, which I will not bother naming.

So what are they netting? Endangered IFS or chum which DFO claimed in trouble and which sporties are shut out?
