Is there any word if and when either the Vedder/Chilliwack or the Chehalis will open for chinook?

Last I heard there was still an expectation that hatcheries would be open during peek times..

I think there is some uncertainty tho as First Nations have requested to have priority access to hatchery rivers.

any specific sections or pages?

That way we can all sneak a peek!

There is multiply documents over the past few years where they have requested to harvest In Fraser river tributaries especially if they are
Going to be denied access during windows
Like the IFS one

First Nations Fisheries also require
“predictable and stable fishing
opportunities” (see sec. 7.1.3) that
have priority over recreational and
commercial fisheries.

Here is another one

Just greed. Our poor salmon. Every year I feel like it gets worse and worse. People fighting over scraps. If I ever see a net in the Nicomen, Sumas, Kanaka OR Chehalis, I'm cutting it. I guarantee you as we speak there lays a net in the Chehalis. Why do you think its still closed ? Because of the pressure from Ralph Leon Jr. last year thats why. That band is becoming more powerful by the day. We as rec guys are losing out grip here. We all talk the same talk year in and year out. Nothing ever changes it just gets worse. We talk about how we all need to hold hands with Indians and get along but the bands don't care. They just stab us in the back and take more ! Ralph Leon Jr is a prime example of this.

Some of you people are just so damn ignorant here. There has been a plan to cut non FN people out of the salmon game privince wide. The cuts we are seeing are just baby steps towards the end game.
