Creel Census Program

---

The Department of Fisheries and Oceans in cooperation with First Nations Bands and Renewable Resource Councils coordinates creel census studies to gather catch and effort statistics as well as biological data on game fish. Information, such as numbers of hours fished and number of fish caught, is noted. This is being done as part of a continuing program to ensure viable sport fisheries in the NWT for future generations of anglers. Your cooperation is appreciated.
