Our objective
|
 |
The purpose of our work is to enable thousands of extra salmon
to reach their spawning rivers every season. The project will allow
more than 15,000 extra salmon to reach their rivers every year.
This will give a number of positive effects.
· Larger number of wild salmon spawning in the rivers will
strengthen the long-term survival of the Atlantic wild salmon.
· It will increase the number of visiting anglers and provide
valuable income for the local communities,
· Together with farming, salmon fishing will strengthen the
commercial aspects and long term prosperity for local farmers,
· Visiting anglers will have a better opportunities to experience
the excitement of catching fish,
· Higher numbers of spawning wild salmon will secure and guarantee
the vital and necessary genetic purity of wild Atlantic salmon.
River angling will give a far better and more controlled management
of the salmon stocks than today. River angling in Norway is managed
locally in co-operation with County Authorities with a number of
different control measures (bag limits, bait restrictions, closures
due to conditions etc.), while bag-net-fishing in the sea (fjords) in
Norway is managed by the Directorate for Nature Management with hardly
any control mechanisms except from weekly time restrictions.

"Elvene rundt Trondheimsfjorden" has offered
compensation to the bag-net-fishermen with regards to
the cancellation of their bag- net-fishing to increase
the number of wild salmon in the Trondheim-fjord rivers. |
