New Brunswick Salmon Council

We Believe....

We believe that the time has come for the implementation of an integrated approach to Atlantic salmon conservation goals.
We believe that the time has come for the implementation of an integrated approach to Atlantic salmon conservation goals in which the federal government and the provincial government work together cooperatively, rather than separately.
New Brunswick Salmon Council

We are the New Brunswick Salmon Council. Affiliated with the Atlantic Salmon Federation, with which we cooperate in our common pursuits. The NBSC promotes and supports conservation planning and management at the watershed level, as an ecological and geographic unit, as the basis for promoting the most effective use of, and accountability for, funds made available to its funded projects
New Brunswick Salmon Council

The NBSC, ASF, and our affiliates work together to protect wild Atlantic salmon and their precious freshwater and marine environments. The NBSC and our member organizations conduct scientific research and promote education and public awareness programs.

Catch & Release Angling on Egg Deposition of Atlantic Salmon on The Greater Miramichi River System

NB Salmon Council in Working Group negotiating allowable recreational fisheries harvest details for Atlantic salmon at various abundance levels on the Northwest/Little Southwest and Southwest Miramichi systems. This group, which also includes fellow salmon conservation organizations, First Nations representatives, provincial representatives and DFO personnel, is part of a DFO initiative to have salmon harvests comply with the so-called “Precautionary Approach” (PA). An attempt is being made to implement the PA on all Canada’s harvested fish stocks. The NBSC used the following first principles in guiding our negotiations in the Working Group.

SMB Eradication sign the letter

Please Help Support the Proposed Project to Eradicate Invasive Smallmouth Bass from the Greater Miramichi River System

As you know, smallmouth bass are serious competitors with, and predators of juvenile Atlantic salmon. Unless bass are eliminated from Miramichi Lake, where they were illegally introduced, and from a short section of the Southwest Miramichi River into which they migrated, they will become established throughout much of the remainder of the Greater Miramichi watershed.
