Default Can't believe every thing you read on line ..

Just came across this on line for Alberta ..
Can anyone confirm this ? I know what the regs say and this is not in it !
Seen a you tube video at Cold lake where a guy is fishing with two rods. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwynYlWkrec&t=32s


copy and paste
If you are alone in the boat, you can have 2 rods in the water. If there's more than one person in the boat, only one rod each is permitted.Feb 28, 2015

Hopefully someone forwarded the link to F&W. Unfortunately some people will assume he is right and copy his actions without checking the regs

Question if he is reported do you still get the reward for reporting poaching?

Guess you will get the finders fee if you were the first one to report it.

I highly doubt I was, nor do I care. I have just seen this play out before where everyone assumes it must have been reported so no body does anything.

My thought is if I was there I would have talked to him and kept it in house so to speak. But as soon as your publicly trying to show people this is OK, and encourage it, defend it when pointed out in the comments, now it needs to be dealt with differently so that others don't blindly follow and get in trouble as well.

That’s why I asked as I didn’t want to do it also, although maybe if more people alert them they may be inclined to take action.
