Surecatch,

That must have been last year? I've crossed at Sumas 4 times since August (Fraser sockeye season) and they've relaxed quite a bit since last fall. I personally have only had to show my DL, but always bring passport just in case. Last Oct. there was a sign at the crossing that said BC, PP, or Voter cards WERE accepted, and my wife and I had no trouble using voter cards. Yes, the river is low and people are lining/snagging at the deep holes, but this is nothing new, they do it at higher water as well. Like EVERYWHERE else, when salmon are stacked up there are ALWAYS going to be people doing this. The key is like I said before, do a little hiking and fish the travelling lanes. Rain would definitely help, but there's none in the immediate forecast, so it's either sit at home, or go fishing.
