The recent devastating regulation announcements by the DFO may have spelt the death knell to what was once a world class coastal wide fishery. A fishery that is now suddenly on the brink of total collapse. Once the DFO takes away fishing opportunities they rarely if ever reverse their decisions. These new regulations are unfortunately engraved in stone and they are going to be with us for many years to come. What is left of the bottom fishery is going to be hammered into near extinction over the coming weeks and it will not be long before the DFO takes action to protect
what is left of this fishery. On a brighter note, the DFO has just announced a 600 trial Seal harvest for our waters that will be conducted by the FN. 200 Seals in the Fraser River, 200 in the GOG and 200 in the Campbell River area. They also announced a 200K seal harvest for the East Coast. If we can start to eliminate the Seals, maybe there is still some hope for our Salmon?
