Big prop and rudder on the #providence @providencesailcargo

Today was a bitter sweet day. For the first time all sunmer I went DNA sampling for Fraser chinook. We fished for a set time period of 3.5 hours and sampled e...very fish that made it to the boat. There are a lot of fish around, just like last year. The amount of fish present is incredible. That is the sweet part of the day. If you were out in the third week of August last year you know what I mean. In my opinion all chinook encountered were 100% non endangered stocks, likely South Thompson 4.1. The DNA is going to prove this. They were all between 12 and 18 pounds at the most. The bitter part of the day is there should be a Public Fishery for these chinook. We can selectively fish for them with bait and take 1 a day, max 10 a year, with no threat to sturgeon or sockeye. Meanwhile there have been many First Nation chinook gill net openings in the Fraser and thousands of chinook have been killed by indiscriminate gill nets that are also killing sturgeon, sockeye (on the worst run on record) and endangered summer steelhead and summer coho. The fact there is no opportunity for Canadian citizens under the veil of conservation while hundreds of gill nets hang in the river is disgusting. This has nothing to do with conservation, this has to do with reallocation of a Canadian resource, culture, and economy to First Nation. DFO... How dare you use the word conservation in your closure of the Public Chinook Fishery off Vancouver from April 1 to Sep 1 then allow gill nets in the river to kill thousands of chinook, countless sturgeon and sockeye (on a year there are basically none). @justinpjtrudeau @bernadettejordanmp @fisheriesoceanscan should be ashamed of how they have managed chinook this season and senior management should resign (you know who you are). Go on Justin’s and Bernadette’s Instagram and leave them a message that you won’t put up with this gross miss management. Get involved. Join the @publicfisheryalliance and @sfiofbc. Donate your time or cash or your skill set. Let’s band together and put a stop to this! #wefishhere #fishforall #weareallcanadians #oneresourceforall #oneadayisehokay @ Vancouver, British Columbia See more

PSA From False Creek Fuels (feel free to share). Follow all safety rules posted at the fuel dock, and once you are done fuelling, turn on the blower, inspect the bilge for fumes, then start engines (if deemed safe to do so), and only then, should you reboard your passengers. Safe boating = fun boating!
