Except for one day in there where the numbers plummeted (Sept 20: dropped to 24k from 145k the day prior).... odd....

[wildmanyeah]

Including fish mortality and those taken in fisheries, Lapointe expects some 750,000 late-run sockeye will make it to their Adams River spawning grounds, a number similar to the 2014 dominant year.

Adding to '06 and '14.... Escapements to spawning ground:
- 2010: 13.1 million (47% of final run estimate)
- 2011:   2.6 million (51% of final run estimate)
- 2014:   5.9 million (29% of final run estimate)

Escapement past Mission:
- 2010:      14.3 million (51% of final run estimate) (note: report stated 16 million, but this was a mgmt decision to align with other HA counts further upstream)
- 2011:        3.9 million (76% of final run estimate)
- 2014:      10.1 million (50% of final run estimate)... looks like alot of fish lost upstream of Mission in '14 (water volume / temp.?)
- 2018 YTD: 3.8 million (48% of all accounted, as of Sept. 07/18) (quantity past Mission + total marine TAC, )

Total all TAC:
- 2010:      13.6 million (49% of final run estimate)
- 2011:        2.1 million (41% of final run estimate)
- 2014:      11.2 million (56% of final run estimate)
- 2018 YTD: 4.7 million (60% of all accounted, as of Sept. 07/18) (total all TAC + quantity past Mission (less 762k upstream catch))

From the latest PSC update, seems like the numbers are trending in the right direction (IMO)....
Escapement past Mission:
- 2018 YTD: 4.8 million (50% of all* accounted, as of Sept. 21/18) (*all=quantity past Mission + total marine TAC)

Total all TAC:
- 2018 YTD: 5.3 million (57% of all^ accounted, as of Sept. 07/18) (^all=total all TAC + quantity past Mission (less 867k upstream catch))

Am I misreading today's commercial fishery notice for purse seine (FN1048-COMMERCIAL - Salmon: Seine - Area B - Area 29).... it looks like they are 'being read the riot act' by DFO.... wrist slapping due to some noncompliance out there....?

Hardly. It's tough for DFO to slap around Jimmy and his feet. He has deep pockets after all

[wildmanyeah]

Aboriginal economic sockeye opening in river as well. Beach seines for sockeye so they can separate out the coho and steelhead. Yeahhhh right what a joke

Rip coho and steelhead

.. just a love letter then?  Seems kinda disciplinary in nature to me....

Good thing there's a bait ban on the cap to make up for this

[Hike_and_fish]

I am just blown away. The rec sector is closed for retention of Sockeye in the fraser why ? To prevent snagging of Sreelhead and Coho ? Seems legit. Except for when we had the opening and saw a FN boat with 38 Springs on board. I can remeber that band handing them out like candy to every non FN on Moutain bar for 3 days every day. Am I to assume that that nonsense doesnt apply to Coho or Steelhead ? Yeah..... I'm sure they'll be tossing those dead fish right back into the Fraser.

Jimmy's boats have the right to fish for profit and the common man cant ? There's something wrong here.

...you should go watch then to see 1) if they get any coho or steelhead in the seine 2) what they do with them

have a chat with the DFO observers on site and see what they say.

They have been opening beach seines in Sept and October for years.

[ynot]

for those interested the sports catch in the fraser was 67,000.

Get used to it...this is the new normal. Tax paying citizens bow down to special interest groups...
No other demographic gets screwed as much as the middleclass.
I wonder who they'll ask for tax money when the day comes where the middle class no longer exists.

[RalphH]

gee Rob you sound like an economic expert! What exactly is the 'middle class'?

[Hike_and_fish]

Unbelievable.

they are not reporting the marine (tidal) catch as yet.
