The goal of the Nicola Watershed Stewardship and Fisheries Authority is to understand, promote, support, and enhance the fisheries of the Nicola Valley.
To understand our fisheries in the valley, the NWSFA conducts annual salmon stock assessment of coho and chinook salmon in collaboration with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. This program is hugely successful and both the Nicola Valley chinook and coho act as indicator stocks to understand the health of these species across the BC interior. Knowing the state of our fisheries informs us on strategies to help support and enhance populations native to the valley.
