Report 3/11

Well, score one for the trout today. They basically kept me guessing all day. I did see others doing better. I think midges were working for them. I also noticed two seperate instances of illegal fishing in the "no bait zone" at different times today. Ironically, I had just talked to an AGF officier a few hours ealier and he informed me that violations are happening all up and down the river. Apparently many people don't seem to care about the changes to the regulations. But maybe after a couple of whopper fines this Spring and Summer they will. Since BTW is my primary river, I personally wish I could do more to help. Anybody got a badge they aren't using these days?

We went last sunday and didnt pull one fish out of the water. Kind of a strange day. I hate to see that people are fishing illegaly, did you not ask them if they were aware of the new law changes?

I think i might have said something.

Well, I thought about it, but you know how those situations can be. If I thought it was a matter of them not knowing what they were doing, I probably would have. But it seemed they knew they were fishing illegally and didn't care. In such a situation anything said would be interpreted as hostile. Next time I will call 18004829262 to report violations. Oddly enough my cell can call out from down there.
