The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
1st Session
42nd Parliament
A
Thank
you,
mr
speaker.
Last
fall.
As
we
entered
the
dark
days
of
winter,
I
happened
to
meet
with
sean
simmons,
a
prince
george
resident
and
owner
of
anglers
atlas
and
goldstream.
Publishing
sean
had
formed
a
company
in
prince
george
back
in
1999
and
over
the
years
expanded
across
canada
and
into
the
united
states.
A
Sean
is
all
about
fishing
fresh
water
fishing.
His
company
now
boasts
more
than
80
000,
topographical
maps
and
depth,
charts
of
lakes
and
bc
and
across
canada.
Our
conversation
led
to
the
first
ice
fishing
derby,
hosted
by
northern
mlas
from
the
caribou
central
interior,
northern
interior
and
the
skeena.
A
A
The
app
records
the
date
time
and
place
of
the
catch,
and
the
experts
working
within
the
company
can
determine
the
length
down
to
a
millimeter
and
the
species
of
fish
caught.
Fishers
now
have
the
option
to
catch
and
release
fish
if
they
prefer,
once
the
fisher
person
enters
cell
service.
The
information
automatically
downloads
the
anglers
atlas
database
and
don't
worry
for
those
fisher
persons
intent
on
keeping
their
favorite
location
secret.
The
locations
of
the
fish
entered
are
not
revealed.
A
Our
shake
off
the
blues
fishing
derby
commenced
on
february
13th
and
will
conclude
on
march.
The
7th
local
businesses
and
sponsors
from
the
cariboo
deport
allison
from
prince
george
and
terrace
have
generally
sponsored
numerous
prizes.
As
of
a
week
ago,
over
400
fish
have
been
entered
from
48
different
water
bodies
representing
15
different
species
of
freshwater
fish
for
anyone
living
in
the
northern
interior,
enjoy
our
outdoor
spaces
shake
off
the
blues
and
enter
the
derby.
You
could
be
a
winner
thanks,
mr
speaker,.
