Fishing for scraps. Nearing the end of the run soon. Thanks DFO. The fleet and FN will have their nets all over the place.

At Least sanity has prevailed and DFO resource managers came to their senese. This may be to little to late but its a WIN and ill take it.

What's the consensus on non-tidal?  Think an announcement will follow this one?

The Fraser will remain closed until Nov 1st. That won't change.

At 4 million escapement and declining fast.

gotta love these kind of turnarounds.

Of course most of the 8.9 million run is past Mission now and is over 250% of the minimum escapement target.

It's about principal keeping the lower fraser river closed in the face of mounting evidence that the pink run was indeed stronger than anticipated. Most of the run may be passed but at least there is still managers in DFO allowing fisheries to take place. This opening is going to infuriate people that were calling to keep the fraser river closed to recreational fishing and despite that pressure the department still opened it.

I find it frustrating that they use the Mission CPR bridge as a boundry. It should be east of the Sumas. My 2 cents

you joke but haven't measures like this been advocated for by the rec advocacy groups for some now to address some of the DFO's other concerns, as mentioned in some of Rodney's previous posts?

I want to believe the DFO is actually still considering the advisement of the sport sector as opposed to just ignoring them...

Good point.  Hopefully this is a start and may be in the future they can think about leader length recommendations for the Tidal and Non Tidal Fraser.

DFO throwing the sporties a crumb. Extend the opening to include the non tidal portion of the river.

Visibility is about a foot out by the tunnel - not so good.
