- Fraser River:  No fishing for salmon until August 22, 2017. that's a bit of a kick in the nuts!

Hopefully we get some surprises and they open up for sockeye or pinks before that!   


Further to FN0515, the Department will be managing fisheries based on
management Zone 1 (i.e. returns to the Fraser below or equal to 45,000 chinook)
for Fraser Spring 5-2 and Summer 5-2 chinook.

In Region 3, the following actions will remain in place to protect Spring and
Summer 5(2) chinook:

- Bridge River:  No fishing for salmon.
- Clearwater River:  No fishing for salmon.
- North Thompson River:  No fishing for salmon.
- Fraser River:  No fishing for salmon until August 22, 2017.
- Thompson River:  No fishing for salmon until August 22, 2017.

Please visit the DFO Recreational Fishing website for information on fisheries
targeting Summer 4-1 chinook.  (www.bcsportfishguide.ca)

Plenty of places to fish until then.  Let these runs recover.

I have not took a salmon out of the fraser or fresh water in 15 years so nothing to worry about their.

Few pinks in the river before then and there shouldn't be a sockeye opening.
Doesn't make sense to complain about the closure.
