Caption
The day when a fishery officer was someone to be outwitted or avoided is disappearing in Canada. Today, a friendly spirit prevails between protection officers and the men whose livelihood depends on a program of planned conservation. Patrolling B.C.'s Discovery Passage, Fishery Officer Fred Shaughnessy hails the troller Millie. In addition to such routine inspections, officers clear hundreds of streams to facilitate fish migration.
