No rec opening yet! But the good thing is DFO didn't care that the guys were gillnetting sockeye in an RCA in Deepwater bay.

First Nations food, social and ceremonial fisheries for sockeye are underway in all areas. Fishers are requested to check for opening times and any restrictions in their local areas. There are no planned commercial or recreational sockeye fisheries at this time. An update from the August 10th Fraser River Panel meeting follows: The Fraser River Panel met August 10 to review assessment data on Fraser River sockeye salmon, plan fisheries and discuss sockeye migration conditions in the Fraser River watershed. Marine test fisheries indicate declining migration of Fraser sockeye over recent days. DNA analyses indicate that the stock composition of Fraser River sockeye in the marine approach routes is currently approximately 5 per cent Early Summer-run, 80 per cent Summer-run, and 15 per cent Late-run sockeye. The diversion rate of Fraser River sockeye through Johnstone Strait has been increasing recently and is presently estimated at 37%. Estimates of sockeye passage in the Fraser River past the Mission hydroacoustic site have been strong over the last several days. The observer at Hells Gate has reported a large migration of sockeye over the past few days. Early Summer-run sockeye continue to display a broad, multi-peak marine migration profile, which has resulted in numerous run size increases this season. At the Panel meeting on August 6 the Panel increased the run size estimate for Early Summer-run sockeye from 510,000 fish to 530,000 fish. At the Panel meeting on August 7, the run size estimate for Early Summer-run sockeye was increased to 550,000 fish and at the meeting August 10 the run size estimate was unchanged. The estimated 50 per cent marine timing of Early Summer- run sockeye through Area 20 is currently estimated to be July 16, which is the timing that was expected during pre-season planning. The estimated escapement of Early Summer-run sockeye past Mission through August 9 is 477,000 fish. At the meeting on August 7, the Panel agreed that Summer-run sockeye run size estimates were consistent with the pre-season forecast of 1,585,000 fish. At the meeting August 10 the Summer-run sockeye run size estimate was unchanged. The estimated 50% marine timing of Summer-run sockeye through Area 20 is currently estimated to be August 5, which is four days later than expected. DNA analyses indicate that Chilko sockeye are continuing to contribute a large portion of the Summer-run sockeye abundance migrating through marine assessment areas. The estimated escapement of Summer-run sockeye past Mission through August 9 is 613,000 fish. At the meeting August 10, the Panel approved a run size estimate of 200,000 Late-run sockeye. A large portion of the Late-run sockeye return this season is expected to be comprised of five year old Birkenhead and Weaver sockeye and assessments conducted to-date are consistent with this expectation. The estimated escapement of Late-run sockeye past Mission through August 9 is 101,000 fish. On August 9 the discharge of the Fraser River at Hope was approximately 4,700 cms, which is approximately 18% above average for this date. The temperature of the Fraser River at Qualark Creek on August 8 was 19.4 degrees Celsius, which is 1.5 degrees Celsius higher than average for this date. The Panel manages fisheries to provide additional Fraser sockeye above the spawning escapement targets through application of management adjustments. The management adjustments help ensure that the escapement targets are met, which off-sets en route mortality and other factors that could affect meeting spawning escapement targets. At the Panel meeting on August 6, after reviewing environmental and stock assessment information, the Panel approved a decrease in the management adjustment factor for Early Summer-run sockeye from 0.58 to 0.54. At the Panel meeting on August 7 it was reduced to 0.49 and at the meeting August 10 it was unchanged. Total catch to date in all fisheries is approximately 290,000. Total escapement into the river to date is approximately 1,269,000 sockeye. Total in-season run size is approximately 2,515,000. The next in-season meeting of the Fraser Panel is scheduled for Tuesday August 14, 2012. FOR MORE INFORMATION: Barry Rosenberger 250-851-4892 [/TD]

Subject: FN0732-Salmon: Sockeye - Areas 11-29- Fraser River Sockeye Update August 14, 2012
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Amendment to FN 0731 - The following is the corrected information: At the
meeting August 14th the Summer-run sockeye run size estimate was decreased from
1,585,000 to 1,300,000. 50% run timing date is estimated at August 2nd. See
below for the complete update.
There are no planned commercial or recreational sockeye fisheries at this
time. First Nations food, social and ceremonial fisheries for sockeye are
underway in all areas. Fisheries may be restricted due to constraints on Late-
run stocks. Fishers are requested to check for opening times and any
restrictions in their local areas. Additional information will be made via
Fisheries Notice August 17th.
An update from the August 14th Fraser River Panel meeting follows:
The Fraser River Panel met today to review assessment data on Fraser River
sockeye salmon, plan fisheries and discuss sockeye migration conditions in the
Fraser River watershed. The marine migration of Fraser sockeye has continued
to decline over the past several days. DNA analyses indicate that the stock
composition of Fraser River sockeye in the marine approach routes is currently
approximately 2% Early Summer-run, 69% Summer-run, and 29% Late-run sockeye.
The recent 3 day average diversion rate of Fraser River sockeye through
Johnstone Strait is estimated at 31%. Estimates of sockeye passage in the
Fraser River past the Mission hydroacoustic site have been in the 40-50,000
range the last several days.
The run size estimate for Early Summer-run sockeye was unchanged to 550,000
fish at the meeting today. The estimated escapement of Early Summer-run sockeye
past Mission through August 13 is 488,000 fish.
At the meeting August 14th the Summer-run sockeye run size estimate was
decreased from 1,585,000 to 1,300,000. 50% run timing date is estimated at
August 2nd. DNA analyses indicate that Chilko sockeye are continuing to
contribute a large portion of the Summer-run sockeye abundance migrating
through marine assessment areas. The estimated escapement of Summer-run sockeye
past Mission through August 13 is 765,000 fish.
At the meeting today the Late-run sockeye run size was unchanged at 200,000. A
large portion of the Late-run sockeye return this season is expected to be
comprised of five year old Birkenhead and Weaver sockeye and assessments
conducted to-date are consistent with this expectation. The estimated
escapement of Late-run sockeye past Mission through August 13 is 139,000 fish.
On August 13 the discharge of the Fraser River at Hope was approximately 4,500
cms, which is approximately 19% above average for this date. The temperature of
the Fraser River at Qualark Creek on August 13 was 18.9 0 C, which is 1.1 0C
higher than average for this date. The Panel manages fisheries to provide
additional Fraser sockeye above the spawning escapement targets through
application of management adjustments. The management adjustments help ensure
that the escapement targets are met, which off-sets en route mortality and
other factors that could affect meeting spawning escapement targets. The Panel
adopted a management adjustment of 0.09 for the Summer-run.
Total catch to date in all fisheries is approximately 323,000. Total escapement
into the river to date is approximately 1,469,000 sockeye. Total in-season run
size is approximately 2,230,000.
The next in-season meeting of the Fraser Panel is scheduled for Friday August
17, 2012.
