A Canadian aquaculture firm has been fined CAD 350,000 (USD 257,000 EUR 233,000) for operating an illegal steelhead trout farm.

Canada’s National Observer reported West Coast Fishculture Ltd. pleaded guilty to operating a steelhead trout farm in Lois Lake – located in British Columbia, Canada – without a license. The company must remove all traces of infrastructure from the lake by 31 August 2025.
 

A similar charge against the company’s director, Sean Wilton, was stayed – as was a charge against Robert Lecke, who is the CEO of AgriMarine Holdings, the parent company of West Coast Fishculture.
