Hey all, i just joined up as i've been seeing nothing but these forum posts pop up everytime i google something. i figured i may as well join the fun.
anyway i'm heading out to BC for some small mouth bass fishing and these BC regs are driving me nuts, i want to make sure i don't break any rules, all my previous trips to these lakes were catch and release but i want to teach my son how to clean and gut and cook a fish (hopefully one he catches) so its important to me that he learns how to follow the rules.
My questions is specifically about size. the BC reg website mentions that anything to do with size are detailed on the region specific table.

i can see the quota is specifically 8 per day but no mention of size. so my initial thought is maybe there isn't a size restriction? but then the province wide section mentions that there is no general size limit for trout of char in BC but no mention of Bass. a general search online lead me to a site that mentioned 18 inches but this was far from official.
any thoughts from you guys on where i can find this out without the fun on being on hold calling into a government Q&A line?
thank you for the help, much appreciated!
