Fishery Notice

Effective January 1, 2016 at 00:01 hours until further notice, the Mamquam 
River is open to the retention of one hatchery marked coho per day.  

Variation Order No. 2015-606

Notes:

The term "marked" means a hatchery fish that has a healed scar in place of the 
adipose fin.

Sport anglers are encouraged to participate in the Salmon Sport Head Recovery 
program by labelling and submitting heads from adipose fin-clipped chinook and 
coho salmon.  Recovery of coded-wire tags provides critical information for 
coast-wide stock assessment.  Contact the Salmon Sport Head Recovery Program 
toll free at (866) 483-9994 for further information.

Anglers are advised to check http://www.pac.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/fm-gp/rec/index-
