MICHEL FIRST NATION Traditional Land Use Study Enbridge Northern Gateway Pipeline 4.5 Fishing Areas Interview participants reported past and current fishing areas in numerous lakes, rivers and creeks throughout their traditional territory including in the vicinity of the proposed Project. MFN members report fishing for various species of fish including: whitefish, perch, jackfish, suckers, trout, sturgeon, and grayling (MFN1, MFN2, MFN3, MFN4, MFN5, MFN11, MFN12, MFN13). Similar to the accounts about hunting, many MFN members relayed stories about using their status card when fishing in lieu of a provincial fishing licence (MFN11, MFN12, MFN14, MFN15). Members reported fishing predominantly with a fishing line; however some participants also net fish or have in the past. Figure 4-5 is an overview of the fishing areas identified during the study.
