The Quinsam Hatchery has been in operation since 1974. Prior to this date the numbers of adult fish returning to spawn were 4,000 coho, 4,000 chinook and 30,000 pink salmon per year. Hatchery returns have boosted these runs to 30,000 coho, 15,000 chinook and 10,000 pink salmon. This hatchery has played a vital role in restoring natural spawning runs to the Campbell/Quinsam Rivers as well as assisting production of other systems such as the Puntledge and Oyster rivers.
