A resident of Port Alberni defends her quotes from a local newspaper.

Carolyn Jasken told the Alberni Valley Times that Dauphin doesn’t have a good fishing town, according to her, it’s because of what she’s been told.

“They really don’t deserve this,” Jasken said. “They don’t even have a good fishing town.”

When speaking to 730 CKDM, Jasken said: “Well I’ve heard that it’s about an hour and a half drive to get your line in the water. There’s a limited amount species of fish and I’m not really to sure about what Dauphin has, I’ve just seen some of their submissions and pictures and I think Port Alberni is the Ultimate.”

Jasken adds thats her town has 8 different species of fish and that it’s just a short 5 to 10 minute drive to all their bodies of water. 

Voting continues in the Ultimate Fishing Town Contest on Tuesday (September 7th).
