UPPER COLUMBIA WHITE STURGEON ANGLER OUTREACH
Upper Columbia White Sturgeon Recovery Initiative c/o Columbia-Kootenay Fisheries Renewal Partnership - (Castlegar, BC)
$9,450.00

The Upper Columbia White Sturgeon Angler Outreach project is an angler contact program that will provide information on habitat and gear selection of anglers to minimize incidental catch of white sturgeon. Juvenile sturgeon released to the Columbia River have become large enough to be susceptible to angling techniques, in particular those used for walleye. This project focuses on providing information to avoid incidental catch and handling techniques that will reduce mortalities when incidental captures do occur.
