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.

The work of the Council is carried out by volunteers and it is funded entirely by donations from persons interested in the conservation and wise management of the wild Atlantic salmon.

Salmon Harvest Reduction

NB Salmon Council Calls on Salmon Anglers to Voluntarily Reduce Harvest

In response to the looming threat of an increased harvest of wild Atlantic salmon off the coast of Greenland, the NB Salmon Council (NBSC) is calling upon recreational salmon anglers to voluntarily reduce or eliminate (and report on) their harvests on New Brunswick rivers during the 2013 season. This plea comes on the heels of recent meetings in Drogheda, Ireland where the North Atlantic Salmon Conservation Organization (NASCO) failed to stop the factory sales of wild Atlantic salmon in Greenland and to set a cap on Greenland’s subsistence fishery.
