The migration of sockeye past the Mission hydro acoustic site has decreased
over the past week from a peak of 70,200 on August 1, 2013 to a low of 28,100
on August 5, 2013. Harvest in food, social and ceremonial fisheries conducted
in the lower Fraser River this past weekend would have resulted in some
reduction in the migration of fish past Mission.

i saw some in 2 big blue totes !

Let's see. 70,000 down to 28,000 so just over a 40,000 drop. FN in the lower Fraser reported 17,600. So, between unreported FN catches and sportsfishermen illegally keeping sockeye on the long weekend, could that account for over 20,000 fish?
How is this news up there anymore? Seems like this happens every year. I figured you guys just hoped the runs would be sufficient to make up for the severe underreporting/illegal catching every year.

Hope they keep it closed...

And selling door to door, im hearing...

Go look over Bassonator's fence. I understand there's a significant run around there. ;) ;D

I saw Bassy's ad on Craigslist:
"Wanted Sockeye, must be able to deliver over my fence."

Some interesting research that some folks might want to read:

That should be required reading for all anglers clamouring for a sockeye opening on the Fraser River this summer.

Will not happen.

This is probably a worthwhile read as well and probably a little more relevant as it was conducted on the Fraser. http://www.thinksalmon.com/reports/2011_Fraser_River_Sockeye_CR_Study_(Final_copy).pdf (http://www.thinksalmon.com/reports/2011_Fraser_River_Sockeye_CR_Study_(Final_copy).pdf)

Not sure if others have told you already, but you need to read the reports others posted first if you want to engage in the discussion.

Well, they are both relevant really when you read both of them; however, both look at the issue a little differently. J.O. Thomas report was primarily concerned with short-term mortality rates. In Robinson et al 2013, they wanted to mimic a method of assisted ventilation that anglers commonly use. It was the first assessment of the long term survival of holding a fish into the current prior to release. Granted it was under experimental conditions, but if you compare it to the report that accompanied the J.O. Thomas report (Donaldson et al 2011; Scott Hinch's group who looked at survival over a longer term. This includes many who were apart of Robinson et al 2013) they both indicate that either 24 hr recovery in a net pen or ventilation assistance may not promote post release survival of Fraser Sockeye.
