Canada's Minister of Fisheries and Oceans has issued a statement regarding Fraser River Sockeye Fisheries for 2010, stating:
"2010 is turning out to be a banner year for Fraser River sockeye salmon, with this year's return currently set at just over 25 million fish, one of the highest returns in the last hundred years. Several fishery openings for Fraser River sockeye have already occurred in 2010 and more are planned.
According to the announcment, for the first time in four years, all sectors, including commercial, recreational and First Nations have had a chance to harvest Fraser River sockeye.
The Fraser River harvest is regulated through the Pacific Salmon Commission, which includes U.S. and Canadian representatives.
