Babine River closed to recreational fishing to protect salmon

The Babine River, from the Babine fence to its confluence with the Nilkitkwa River, has been closed to recreational fishing to safeguard sockeye salmon in response to unusually warm and low water conditions.

The Aug. 3 closure is part of the Babine River Collaborative Management Plan (BRCMP), a joint effort between Lake Babine Nation and Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) aimed at adapting management strategies to environmental changes.
