We are proud to announce our continued support to the amazing work and dedication of the B.C. Adult Salmon Diet Program in our home waters of Southern B.C. with a raffle prize of an MR2LA! 2021 has been the most successful year of the program with 742 samples (615 chinook and 127 coho) processed to date. While the diets of juvenile salmon in the marine environment have been extensively studied in recent years, data on adult salmon diets in British Columbia are sparse. Improving understanding of how Chinook and Coho salmon diets vary by region, season and year, may help us understand factors limiting growth and survival of these valuable populations. Additionally, trends in salmon diets have the potential to provide us with a novel and powerful perspective on changes in the ecosystem. Such information can contribute to management measures to promote recovery and sustainable use of multiple marine species. - B.C. Adult Salmon Diet Program. As an added incentive in support of this program our team @Islanderreels and our friends @APtackleworks both donate a yearly prize that will be raffled off next Thursday, May 26th, for samples submitted in 2021. The raffle prizes are an MR2LA or a Salish Sea Spoon Package, and each sample submitted with email = 1 entry in the draw to win either prize! If you didn’t get around to submitting a sample for the 2021 season, don’t worry. Samples for 2022 are already being collected. Consider submitting now for 2022 as all samples (full bellies or not) give valuable information to aid in furthering the data collected by the B.C. Adult Salmon Diet Program and get a head start on entries for next year’s draw! All they ask is that you catch lots of fish (if only it was so simple), save all the samples you can, and spread word of the program. Enquiries can be directed to willduguid@hotmail.com or juaneslabmanager@gmail.com. You can also search for, like, and share the “Southern BC Adult Salmon Diet Program” page on Facebook for updates and pictures. Thanks to everyone for the support and good fishing!
