"The Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) launched a short-term monitoring program in 2023 to assess recreational Chinook Salmon mark-selective fisheries (MSFs) in British Columbia. The objective of the Chinook reference fishery program is to independently verify Chinook catch (number of Chinook caught and released at sea by size class) and mark rate (the percentage of hatchery-marked Chinook encountered by size class) estimates from the recreational catch monitoring program (creel program), as well as to evaluate stock composition (with a focus on unmarked stocks that are typically released at sea and not available for dockside sampling in a pure MSF). This data report presents a summary of 1) mark rates for Chinook salmon intercepted in the Chinook reference fishery, and 2) stock composition, as encountered in each MSF for each reference fishery by month"--Abstract, page iv.
