Drive by both Bass Pro & Cabelas on the way to Fish Tales

I am 100% against a CW system, it benefits one user group, Guides. If you think BC is a model of fishing quality let me know when you land a steelhead in spences bridge. so lets get to the meat and potatoes of this issue, you want more fish and less people around YOU when fishing. well unfortunately we live in an area where the population is rising and resource isn't. So what's the solution? Taxation? Taxation is the solution? If too much of something is being consumed and we want less consumption, we should tax it? Like carbon? Isn't there easier solutions than getting the man involved? The question is how do we get less anglers on the water any given day? why cant you guys complaining start by not fishing these areas? you know the problem is too many anglers, why do you compound the problem? You have the power to self limit but you need the government to make the decision for you, I don't understand that. if just the regular users of this forum didn't hit the SW streams for a season there would be an improvement. limiting out of province users is a red herring in 2015 we had 303,212 Resident licenses and 10,193 Non-Resident licenses sold; 2017 saw a decline to 294,037 Resident licenses with 4225 Non-Resident licenses. So by limiting out of province anglers we can at best make a 3% change.... come on. The guys from Alberta fishing the SW streams are responsible for the quality of the fishing on said streams. If fishing was banned there for a few years when returning the fishing would be amaze balls.

This is called 'Tim's Alternator' and was kinda fun to tie on a Size 16 3x long after all the 20's I've been squinting at! Can't really tell from the pic, but the abdomen is a pearl Uni-mylar, which gives it a nice shimmer. I'm down to my last straggles of peacock herl, however, so one can imagine a fuller thorax! Might trim the bottom of the rusty hackle...but might not.
