HELP’S AT HAND

HELP’S AT Hand, by North
Shore Community Services
(NSCS), is a forum for discussing
government policies and pro-
grams, benefits, consumer and
legal rights, taxation and public
services. .

Answers are intended only as a
general guide and should not be
applied to individual cases without
further consultation.

Question: Our family would like
to take up the sport of fishing,
both in the ocean and fresh water.
Do we require a licence to do so,
and alse, are there any other
special regulations? We will be in-
cluding our young children.

Answer: You will, in fact, re-
quire two separate licences. The
salt waters are governed federally,
and the fresh waters provincially.
Children under 16 years of age
only require a salt water, or tidal
fishing licence; although it is free
of charge.

Licences are available at most
sporting goods shops and large
department stores. An annual
adult licence for tidal waters will
cost you $10. Licetices for seniors,
65 years of age and older, are $5.
All licences must be carried with
you at the time of angiing.

There is an additional $3 fee for
a Chinook conservation stamp, if
you wish to catch and keep
chinook salmon, and at the end of
the licence year the Department of
Fisheries and Oceans may be ran-
domly recalling licences, so you
must retain your licence until ex-
piry.

Keep in mind that rivers wiich
Now into the ocean are considered
tidal at their mouths, Each river
has a specific location near its
mouth where it become: tidal, and
your Sport Fishing Guide will
define this spot.

No licence is required to harvest
shellfish sach as clams, mussels,
oysters, crabs, shrimp. or prawns;
however, size and quantity limits
do apply. Uf you are interested in
catching and cating shellfish, you
are advised to follow certain safe-
ty guidelines, which again, are
listed in the Sport Fishing Guide.

The Departacat af Fisheries
and Oceans operates 4 24-hour
Shellfish Information tine (666-

3169), updating the safety of
shellfish beachs.

The basic adult fishing licence
fee for fresh water is $17. Seniors

can fish for a $1 fee, and children

under 16 years of age do not re-~°
.quire a licence. Other rules re-

garding non-residents also apply.

Most lakes and streams are
open to sport fishing with conven-
tional gear 24 hours of the day, 12
months of the year. There are,
however, numerous exceptions in-
cluding species closures, bait bans,
and equipment and boating
restrictions. Consult your
guidebook, and obey posted
markings where you will be fish-
ing.

Daily and annual limits apply to
most species. For some fish there
are minimum and maximum size
limits. Since they vary according
to the individual catch, it is im-
portant that you check your
guidebooks.

The most common violations
are fishing without a licence or in
closed areas, and nat obeying size
or quantity limits. Penalties for
these or other violations will be
enforced, usually in the form of a
fine ranging from $35 to $100.
More serious offences can involve
much larger fines and seizure of
equipment.

The guidelines for sport fishing
can be an excellent educational
vehicle for instructing your
children. Most children will enjoy
the procese of ucquiring their own
licence, and will learn from fol-
lowing the simple regulations.

For more information on tidal
sport fishing, including openings
and closures, call 666-0383. A
24-hour information tine will give
you a recorded message including
fishing “hot spois."*

To find out where to buy your
licences, call 666-2074 for tidal
licences, or S84-8822 for fresh
water. Most: locations will sett
both. Helpful guidebooks that are
useful are: the Sport | Fishing
Guide. and British Columbia
Freshwater Fishing.
