The Nicola River drainage aggregate was a majorcontributor to catch in the commercial fishery from April to early June.

Genetic and Coded Wire Tag Results Combine to Allow More-Precise Management of a Complex Chinook Salmon Aggregate
North American Journal of Fisheries Management 2008; 28:328-340 doi: 10.1577/M06-110.1 Charles K. Parken*, John R. Candy, James R. Irvine, andTerry D. Beacham
Migration times were identified for another 23 untagged populations identified by using genetics, which resulted in the assignment of migration timing groups (peak passage) for 53 populations as spring (March–May), early summer (June), midsummer (July), late summer (August), andfall (September–October).

Key for escapement issues for Nicola (see section 4.1.1.and 4.1.2):
1 Low CWT tag release numbers
7 Data coordination and reporting problems
8 Currently not an indicator stock, but would be iffunding available
ISSUE: Inconsistent and Incomplete Representation ofProduction Regions (Priority High)
Some indicator programs can be functional almostimmediately if funding was available for escapement programs (Lower Shuswap,Nicola, Atnarko). Additional funding is needed to develop indicators for Upper Fraser River springs and summers, and Strait of Georgia Mainland.
