I also was surprised to see some top rods that fish the Chilliwack Vedder and complain every year about the TOW ing that goes on there but they were into it big time today on the Fraser today, I guess they will not be able to complain next year as you cannot have it both ways, no matter how you want to twist it.

The hypocrisy of some people is mind-boggling. I have also seen a couple of the so-called anti-flossers in full swing on the river this year. I guess their mantra of "Flossing is snagging, sportsmen don't snag" doesn't apply when the sockeye are open for retention.  ::)

After reading some explanation of fishing. Should we teach our next generations to learn this?

The run is over 20 million fish of which 14 million are late summer most of them are still outside the river so no need to close anything. the early runs are at the spawning grouds and are in good condition,all is well for this year.
