Summary: Quesnel Lake increase of rainbow trout daily quota

Management unit (MU): 5-15
Regulation type: Quota
Species: Rainbow trout
Closing date: January 17, 2025

Current regulation:
Proposed regulation:
Rationale:
The results of a multi-year exploitation study indicate that there is an opportunity to increase harvest opportunity for rainbow trout and the current regulation is unnecessarily restrictive. The increase in daily quota will provide additional opportunity for anglers and may also help reduce predation pressure on the primary prey species such as kokanee.
