Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) is asking residents near salmon-bearing creeks to be on the lookout for poachers during spawning season, after three men were spotted taking fish from a stream in Coquitlam, B.C.
The incident happened in late October. Three men used nets, which is almost always illegal, to fill a red cooler full of salmon, which is always illegal in Hoy Creek, a waterway that has undergone significant restoration in recent years, and now sees regular coho and chum returns.
