Sport Fishing Institute of British Columbia

Over the years the recognition of the importance of recreational fishing as part of BC's way of life has steadily grown, and anglers, residents and visitors alike are committed to ensuring the fishing resources are protected.

That's what the Sport Fishing Institute of BC is all about — the sustainability and protection of fish stocks and the continued growth of anglers' expectations and opportunities to enjoy the resource. SFI is a non-profit society, governed by an elected Board of Directors. We depend solely on membership fees and contributions from anglers and the many businesses that serve them.
