FN0938-RECREATIONAL - Salmon - Tlell River - Subarea 102-1 - Pink Salmon Daily Limit


Effective September 2, 2016 to March 31, 2017, the recreational daily limit for 
pink salmon is zero (0), in the tidal waters of the Tlell River.

Pink salmon migration past the Tlell River fish enumeration fence has been very 
poor to August 30th, 2016, with also a low abundance of pinks in the lower 
river. Water levels in the river have also been extremely low to date. Due to 
these factors and as recommended by the North Coast Sport Fishing Advisory 
Committee, non-retention of pink salmon has been implemented.

Variation Order Number: 2016-386
