Looks like DFO has added 1 month to hatchery fishing in Victoria and Sidney Areas. Last year it was only May that was open. So they have giving us April as well as I remember. There is a minimum size only of 45cm in Victoria Area and minimum size Sidney area 62 cm again Hatchery only but no Size Limit on the hatchery fish caught. I am no lawyer but this is how I read it.
Area 19 (Victoria and Saanich Inlet)
Effective April 1, 2024, until May 31, 2024, the daily limit for Chinook is one (1) Chinook per day, hatchery marked only.
These measures apply in the following waters:
Subareas 19-1, and 19-3 to 19-8.
Reminder: The minimum size for Chinook is 45 cm in Subarea 19-1, 19-3, and 19-4. The minimum size for Chinook is 62 cm in Subareas 19-5 to 19-12.
