Beginning at 9:30 a.m. Friday, November 6, the Sport Fishing Institute of BC (SFI) is hosting a series of virtual webinars to discuss recovery of salmon stocks and predictable opportunity and reliable access for BC’s public fishery. Each of 4 weekly sessions will be approximately 90 minutes long, with an audience question and answer period following each presentation, and will cover topics within this year’s theme, Charting a Predictable Path for Salmon and BC’s Public Fishery.
While a new approach and virtual in 2020, this annual event has become a key forum where elected officials, public servants and those in the sport fishing industry can meet and share their perspectives on trends, innovations and issues facing BC’s public fishery.
Attendance is free but you must register here in advance for each session.
