I got this link from the Flybc board, and it's a letter from the BC Federation of Fly Fishers giving an overview of the effects of the classified waters system after 25 years. If I am interpreting the information correctly, it looks like it has effectively done nothing to protect the resource or the angling rights of British Columbians. http://www.bcfff.bc.ca/index.php/documents/file/73-classified-waters-25-years-later
