Salmon Enhancement Society

 

The national award winning Tahsis Salmon Enhancement Society raises and releases over 200,000 salmon fry each year which ensures a viable and healthy sport fishery in the region.

 

The Tahsis Salmoid program began in 1983 when only six Chinook Salmon returned to spawn in the Tahsis River. Les Dowding, a Village employee, received permission to build the hatchery on Village property. As a tribute to the founder, it now bears his name as the “Les Dowding Memorial Hatchery”. The society’s goal is to rebuild the vulnerable salmon stocks and improve fish habitats in the Tahsis and Leiner Rivers. The hatchery is run entirely by volunteers. In 2014 the hatchery received a federal government award for “outstanding contribution to promoting the interests of recreational fishing in British Columbia and for the superb example it sets for others working to improve recreational fisheries.”residents-hatchery-pic2
