I just completed the Province of British Columbia (B.C.) and Fisheries and Oceans Canada’s (DFO) internet Socio-Economic Analysis (iSEA) Freshwater Recreational Fishing Survey (for the 2023-2024 fishing season)

My goodness that was a laborious/tedious process! I keep a fishing journal but adding up, then recording, the number of days, species and locations was a chore. If I didn't keep a journal, my responses (read "wild arse guesses") would be woefully inaccurate.

I understand and support the reasons behind the survey and that's why tried to be as diligent and accurate as I could, but I question the validity/reliability of the results when most anglers are going from memory.

I'm not a statistician, but there must be a better way of doing it than asking anglers to remember and report that level of detail over an entire year period.

A little adversity builds character. The Cup will soon be ours. Unlike a certain team from Ontario the Canucks will be playing on Monday

Wouldn't get to high and mighty. This used to be a regular occurrence at a river in the LML. The walk to the best fishing hole was cut by more than half if you cut across the field instead of along the dyke. I saw it happen once, and know of a few other times; don't recall anyone ever being arrested, just a talking to. The land got sold about a decade ago though.

Starting to look like your season is over. Will be a sleepless night for you now.

SugarTooth,

Please check your inbox.  I am interested in buying the rod from you.

Thanks

Like with an assault rifle instead?

I mean, those punk arse kids were trespassing on private land after being being warned previously. So…

There are better ways of discouraging trespassing than chasing them with an armed knife.

Imagine if those kids had been transgendered... Call DeSantis or even better, call his wife!
