Fishing on rivers and streams allowed tomorrow

The Province will allow the freshwater fishing season in rivers and streams on southern Vancouver Island to go ahead, starting tomorrow (Sept. 16).

This summer’s high temperatures and low rainfall caused drought conditions across the Island and as a result the province had closed freshwater fishing from Campbell River to Victoria.

High water temperatures pose health risks for many fish, particularly trout, and increase catch-and-release mortality rates.
