BC_SockeyeMissing Sockeye Investigation
VANCOUVER—The recent collapse of sockeye salmon stocks in B.C.’s Fraser River has sparked an official investigation, which is expected to get underway in Vancouver today. “The Cohen Commission of Inquiry launches the first three days of what is expected to be a lengthy and technical probe into the disappearance of almost 10 million fish from the 2009 Fraser River sockeye run. Only about one million fish returned to spawn, prompting the federal government to order an investigation led by B.C. Supreme Court Judge Bruce Cohen.”

“Our guide, Steelhead Joe—his moniker, not mine—was in the midst of a severe bender. He had slept a combined six hours in three days, during which he’d rowed 60 miles in pursuit of steelhead. He was a father of two and a former golf pro in California who’d moved to Oregon four years earlier, caught a steelhead, and fallen hard. He now spends more than half the year fishing the Deschutes, where, between July and November, some 50,000 trout commute.”
