Commercial Fisheries

The Commercial Fisheries Department at Natoaganeg First Nation plays a crucial role in overseeing the management of fishing and fishing-related activities for both commercial and communal fishing within the community.

We are dedicated to ensuring strict compliance with all maritime safety standards, providing a safe and sustainable fishing environment for our community members.

With a focus on responsible resource management, the department strives to maintain a healthy and abundant fish population, providing the foundation for a thriving fishing industry.

Our local fishermen are proud to bring in a variety of species, including lobster, striped bass, snow crab and salmon, ensuring that profits from these species stay within the community. The Fisheries Department is committed to preserving the natural resources of the area and promoting the well-being of our community through sustainable fishing practices.
