Sean F. Britt I am not in agreement with this study. When you look at the methodology and some conclusions, there are some fatal flaws which sets up the results to be what they are. Two major ones are time and location of fish count. They were done at places and times where fish naturally won’t be. [Facebook]
I've been waiting for news like this.

Over the past 15 years, the Bow has just been absolutely slammed. When I was in my teens, me and my dad could take his Mackenzie boat down from Policeman's to McKinnon's Flats and maybe see another boat.

I went a few years ago, and there were dozens. At one point, maybe 15-20 hitting the same part of the river.

They need to call a moratorium on the fishery. No question.
