This bulletin reviews the status of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in rivers of Salmon Fishing Area 16, eastern New Brunswick. It then describes the current state of the Atlantic salmon fishery (Aboriginal & recreational) and evaluates the status of the salmon resource in three rivers (Miramichi, Tabusintac, Buctouche) for 1998. These assessments include information on returns of small & large salmon, conservation requirements, and egg depositions. For each river, an outlook for the salmon stock is presented along with management considerations.
