2017 Annual Report

Since 1953, the MSA has watched over the Miramichi as a champion of conservation on behalf of anglers, outfitters, guides and all others with economic, environmental and recreational interests in the river.

Managed by volunteers, as Officers and Directors, the MSA remains cooperative with, but independent of, government or special interests influence. It responds in the end only to its growing conservation membership. The net result is a well-managed river system that today, thanks in part to the MSA’s championing of its cause, has more miles of salmon angling water and traditionally holds larger and healthier populations of Atlantic salmon than most salmon rivers in North America.

MISSION STATEMENT

HISTORY EDITORIAL - As we begin to undertake a new 2018 season, it is important to look back at the programs and happenings of 2017 – to review and report on their objectives and results in an effort to ensure ourselves, and our generous supporters, that the conservation actions being undertaken by the MSA are meaningful, science-based and effectively helping to protect and conserve our treasured Miramichi Salmon. The MSA hopes this newly formatted 2017 Annual Report accomplishes that goal.

2017 Overview - Generally, 2017 was a tough year for both fish and anglers alike. Long periods of hot dry weather attributed to long bouts of low warm water, getting so bad at one point that DFO closed 26 cold-water refuge pools for a full 7 days during mid-July. It was also a tough year for salmon conservation as well. While there were some good reasons to remain encouraged, such as advances in government supported salmon research and consulting on developing a river by river harvest plan based on abundance, we were especially disappointed with the additional conservations measures put into place in 2017 to protect an already excessive population of Striped bass that we believe is impacting our salmon smolts. Additionally, another year has gone by and still no decision (or actions taken!) on fully eradicating Smallmouth bass from Miramichi Lake. And finally, delays continued in the issuing of permits for the ‘Smolt to Adult Salmon’ (SAS) research project of CAST; regrettable action that seriously threatens to derail this new and exciting scientific research project aimed at helping our wild Atlantic salmon… before it’s too late!

But while 2017 may have been somewhat of a difficult year, we must remain optimistic and true to our cause… and always remember; “Good things come to those who believe, better things come to those who wait, and the best things come to those who don’t give up!” Thanks to the hard work and generosity of its members, donors and supporters, the MSA will never give up on its mission to help protect and conserve our famed Miramichi Salmon.

Meet Holly Labadie - Assistant Hatchery Manager Born in Toronto, but grew up on the east coast from a young age, Holly received both her Undergraduate and Master’s degrees in Science at the University of New Brunswick (UNB). Holly has always enjoyed the outdoors and working in aquatic environments, especially with fish. Holly has been with the Miramichi Salmon Association for the past 3 years, first as the MSA’s field biologist, switching focus in 2017 by way of moving over to assist in the day-to-day management of the hatchery facility at the Miramichi Salmon Conservation Centre (MSSC) in South Esk. She is heavily involved in the CAST project, specifically the Smolt-to-Adult Supplementa-tion (SAS) program at the hatchery, and in helping the many visiting UNB Ph.D. and Masters students with their own CAST projects and field activities.

Global-class leadership, stewardship, and conservation practices for the Miramichi Watershed to continuously preserve and advance its environmental integrity for the benefit of all species, in particular the Atlantic salmon.

STOCK SUPPLEMENTATION

Stocking Atlantic salmon first-feeding fry can improve the juvenile production capacity of the Miramichi River by targeting areas that are under-seeded or not accessible to wild spawning adults. An electrofishing survey is carried out each year by the Miramichi Salmon Association (MSA) to assess areas of the river that are lacking adequate numbers of fry or parr. Low fry or parr numbers could be the result of multiple factors, including: poor adult returns, barriers to adult movement into upper stream reaches (e.g. beaver dams), environmental events such as ice scouring that could destroy a redd, or less than optimal water conditions. Areas with zero/minimal fry present are targeted for stocking, and efforts are also made to identify and remove any impediments to natural spawning. The majority of these areas are located in small tributaries and the headwaters of the Miramichi River which traditionally have better quality habitat and lower numbers of predators than larger downstream locations.

Juvenile abundance electrofishing surveys and smolt estimates are used to aid in determining specific tributaries that may need additional stocking. Since it is impossible to stock every small stream in the Miramichi with a limited number of fish, it is important to place hatchery grown wild salmon fry into streams that will benefit most from their introduction. Stocking salmon fry into a tributary with high salmon fry abundance could negatively impact those fish by increasing the level of competition for food resources. To avoid this, any site containing more than 100 fry/100m2 is not considered for stocking as it appears to reflect a healthy natural population. Sites with less than 50 fry/100m2 are considered candidates for further stocking. The absence of fry at an already stocked site may indicate that the site does not contain the appropriate habitat or it may have too many predators.

Prior to 2010, fall fingerlings were stocked and identified by an adipose clip (removal of the adipose fin). In 2010 the MSA shifted the focus from Atlantic salmon fall fingerlings to stocking first-feeding salmon fry in the early summer. These fry are incubated as eggs on unheated brook water to ensure that the rate of egg development is similar in timing to that of wild eggs. The stocking of fry over fingerlings has several benefits, including the reduced risk of fish contracting a pathogen while in artificially high densities at the hatchery, and the improved capacity to develop “wild” behaviour tendencies at a younger age. First-feeding fry are stocked out in June/July at an average size of 0.5g which makes fin clipping impossible.

From September to mid-October 2016, adult salmon were collected for broodstock from six tributaries on the Miramichi River – Northwest River, Sevogle River, Little Southwest River (LSW), Clearwater Brook, the Main Southwest River in Juniper, and the Cains River. These fish were held at the MSCC and kept separated based on their river of origin. Once ripe, female salmon were stripped of their eggs, which were then fertilized by a male salmon from the same river. Immediately following spawning, the adults were released back into the wild via Stewart Brook, which runs beside the MSCC. During Winter 2016-2017, eggs were incubated on brook water in trays until the eyed stage, with dead eggs removed daily. In early 2017, eyed eggs were transferred to upwelling incubation boxes in preparation for hatching. After hatching, fry were fed a formulated salmonid diet for approximately 3-4 weeks until stocking. All salmon fry were stocked in their river of origin (“river specific stocking”).

In June & July 2017, a total of 93,431 and 84,113 first feeding Atlantic salmon fry were released in the Northwest and Southwest systems respectfully. An additional 57,487 fry were taken to satellite holding tanks for future release by other local conservation groups. For more detailed information on the MSA’s stock supplementation program, see MSA’s 2017 Conservation Field Program Report at www.miramichisalmon.ca

REMOVING SPAWNING OBSTRUCTIONS

Beaver dams are known barriers to adult Atlantic salmon migrating upstream to spawn, blocking access to habitat in the upper reaches of brooks and streams. Female salmon have been observed below beaver dams in large numbers and are forced to build multiple redds in confined areas of the stream, often with habitat of lower quality than would otherwise be available. The survival of eggs in these crowded, overlapping redds is severely reduced and can negatively impact juvenile salmon production within the stream. Upstream areas of brooks and streams are often excellent spawning and juvenile habitat with a high percentage of gravel and cobble substrates, cold ground fed water, and low numbers of predators. After several years of blocked access, these upstream reaches run the risk of becoming devoid of salmon fry and parr which can potentially lower the number of stream imprinted adult salmon returning to these areas. Improving access to upstream habitat on individual streams could be beneficial to egg survival and juvenile production. If upstream habitat on multiple streams within a watershed is improved, the total number of returning adult salmon in the following years could be increased.

In 2017, MSA field crews breached a total of 43 dams throughout the Miramichi River watershed. For more detailed information on the MSA’s 2017 beaver dam management program, see MSA’s 2017 Conservation Field Program Report at www.miramichisalmon.ca

COLD WATER REFUGE

Pools that are located directly downstream of cold water brooks can be critically important habitat to adult and juvenile salmon during warm water events in the main stem of a river. The presence of these pools creates areas of thermal refugia during times of high water temperatures, where large numbers of salmon and trout, of various life stages, can hold position until surrounding water temperatures decrease. Without isolated pockets of cold water, these fish would be forced to remain exposed to warm water conditions that lead to physiological stress and potential mortality. With the current understanding of climate change science, the Miramichi watershed is likely to see an increase in the frequency, intensity, and duration of warm water events during the summer, particularly in the lower reaches of the river which are less influenced by colder groundwater sources. The Miramichi Salmon Association has identified these cold water pools as habitat of significant value in protecting adult and juvenile salmon.

Over the course of the last 4 years, the MSA has completed 8 cold water habitat refuge projects, completing 2 new projects in 2017; Salmon Brook on the Cains and Hudson Brook on the SW Miramichi. For more detailed information on the MSA’s cold water program, see MSA’s 2017 Conservation Field Program Report at www.miramichisalmon.ca

ACOUSTIC TRACKING - KELTS

2017 represented the 10th year that acoustic tags were used to track the movements of NW Miramichi kelts (adult salmon that over wintered in the river) as they migrate downstream to feed and recondition in the Miramichi Estuary and Bay before moving into the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Studies of repeat spawner egg deposition have estimated that these fish account for 25-40% of the total eggs deposited annually in the Miramichi River, so understanding their migration patterns, at-sea foraging behaviour and overall survival is critical to understanding the threats and conservation actions required to help sustain this great natural resource. As shown in the chart (left), 10-year data clearly suggests the largest loss of adult salmon occurs at sea. Note – poor fishing conditions during Spring 2017 resulted in only 8 kelt being caught for tagging purposes. For more

ACOUSTIC TRACKING - SMOLTS In 2013, the MSA initiated a 5-year acoustic tracking study, made possible by a very generous funding grant from the International Paper Foundation, to determine the migration patterns and survival rates of smolts leaving the NW Miramichi River. This research study was initiated to try and determine if the multi-year average for the number of smolts successfully reaching the ocean is sufficient enough to sustain the population. This NW Miramichi Study has been carried out in concert with a similar smolt tracking study being conducted on the SW Miramichi (by the Atlantic Salmon Federation), thus giving fisheries managers an overall perspective for the full watershed.

In 2017, a total of 80 smolts were captured and implanted with a Vemco V8 acoustic tag. These fish were caught and released in the Miner Bridge area. As seen in the chart (below), the percentage of NW smolts surviving, particularly during their migration from head of tide out through the main channel of the river was particular low in 2017. Additional information from this study also shows that predation by the growing Striped bass population may account for as much as an 18% loss in smolts.

CAST - COLLABORATION FOR ATLANTIC SALMON TOMORROW

CAST, the unprecedented collaboration of two levels of government, private industry, academia and special interest conservation groups, continued to gain positive support and momentum in 2017. Of particular mention were the ongoing upgrades and expansion that CAST has funded at the Miramichi Salmon Conservation Center’s hatchery facilities. These improvements are being made to support CAST’s ‘Smolt to Adult Salmon’ (SAS) release project, with the MSA and Canadian River Institute/UNB playing leadership roles in the project’s role-out and long-term monitoring and evaluation.

Other projects being undertaken as part of this new $6.7 million salmon research and population enhancement program include; using sonar technology (ARIS cameras) to increase the accuracy in determining the number of returning salmon each year; using remote sensing technology (LiDAR Thermal Imaging) to identify critical cold-water salmon habitat throughout the river system; and population modelling and a common home for all salmon data.

Miramichi Salmon Association 2017 Annual Report

COMMUNICATIONS LAND USE During 2017, the MSA’s Land Use Committee continued its active role in monitoring, reviewing and providing advice on a number of significant public and/or private resource issues and projects that could possibly impact and/or affect the Miramichi River Watershed. Of particular concern is the looming spread of the Spruce budworm (from Quebec) and the need for control through the aerial spraying of a biological insecticide. Concern of course is whether this chemical compound will have any possible short and/or long-term impact on the health of the river and more specifically, on juvenile fish development and survival. The Land Use Committee also continues to monitor discussions pertaining to the development of the Sisson Mine project and the potential impact it could have on the neighbouring Nashwaak and St. John River watersheds.

Throughout 2017, the MSA continued to engage what it hopes will be many of our future conservation leaders. The MSA’s annual school-based Bruno Bobak Art Contest received 400 plus entries, with Dreya Cameron, a grade four student from North and South Esk Elementary School (NSEE) being chosen as the overall winner. The MSA’s annual Printing & Writing Contest also generated about the same number of entries. The MSA hatchery continued its support of Fish Friends by providing salmon eggs for in-school aquariums in the Miramichi region. Twenty-one individuals participated in the 8th annual MSA First Cast event on June 24-25, 2017. This great mentoring event introduces the sport and techniques of fly fishing to young and old alike. Other educational events included Salmon Science Symposiums, held during Board meeting weekends in Boston (Jan.) and Boiestown (April). Finally, the annual MSA Jack Fenety Scholarship was awarded to Jani Helminen, a PhD candidate at the University of New Brunswick. Jani’s work is entitled Salmon Population Assessments using ARIS Sonars. His project is part of the Collaboration for Atlantic Salmon Tomorrow (CAST) program.

MSA EVENTS

Special Events are the backbone of the MSA’s support. In addition to being the organization’s single largest source of revenue, MSA fundraising events are popular social gatherings too, with old and new friends alike gathering to share the odd fishing tale, purchase their next fishing trip or fly rod, or just to join together with other like -minded salmon enthusiasts in the common interest of supporting Miramichi salmon conservation.

2017 was a very busy year for Communica-tions. The MSA’s E-newsletter, ‘The Leaper’ continued as the MSA’s flagship communica-tion tool, now reaching over 1,100 salmon conservationists. In addition, visits to the MSA website and Facebook Page grow by double digits. The 2017 MSA Photo Contest was also another great success, with Iris Cieko’s best overall winning photo being chosen for the cover of the MSA’s 2018 calendar. And always popular, the MSA’s River Cam continued to give viewers real time video images of the Miramichi River in front of Bullock's Lodge in Boiestown, NB.

Miramichi Salmon Association 2017 Annual Report

COMMUNICATIONS LAND USE During 2017, the MSA’s Land Use Committee continued its active role in monitoring, reviewing and providing advice on a number of significant public and/or private resource issues and projects that could possibly impact and/or affect the Miramichi River Watershed. Of particular concern is the looming spread of the Spruce budworm (from Quebec) and the need for control through the aerial spraying of a biological insecticide. Concern of course is whether this chemical compound will have any possible short and/or long-term impact on the health of the river and more specifically, on juvenile fish development and survival. The Land Use Committee also continues to monitor discussions pertaining to the development of the Sisson Mine project and the potential impact it could have on the neighbouring Nashwaak and St. John River watersheds.

Throughout 2017, the MSA continued to engage what it hopes will be many of our future conservation leaders. The MSA’s annual school-based Bruno Bobak Art Contest received 400 plus entries, with Dreya Cameron, a grade four student from North and South Esk Elementary School (NSEE) being chosen as the overall winner. The MSA’s annual Printing & Writing Contest also generated about the same number of entries. The MSA hatchery continued its support of Fish Friends by providing salmon eggs for in-school aquariums in the Miramichi region. Twenty-one individuals participated in the 8th annual MSA First Cast event on June 24-25, 2017. This great mentoring event introduces the sport and techniques of fly fishing to young and old alike. Other educational events included Salmon Science Symposiums, held during Board meeting weekends in Boston (Jan.) and Boiestown (April). Finally, the annual MSA Jack Fenety Scholarship was awarded to Jani Helminen, a PhD candidate at the University of New Brunswick. Jani’s work is entitled Salmon Population Assessments using ARIS Sonars. His project is part of the Collaboration for Atlantic Salmon Tomorrow (CAST) program.
