Steam fisheries for resident trout and char are in high demand, and initial surveys of the status of a sample of accessible streams in southern British Columbia indicated most populations are depressed, depleted or contain few large fish. Three options for more intensively and effectively managing these fisheries are rotating closures, stocking of catchables in accessible reaches, and special regulations. Emphasis on special regulations was considered most compatible with provincial fisheries policy. A management strategy is recommeded that establishes four management classes for stream fisheries: Wild A (accessible), Wild B (inaccessible), Trophy and Hatchery Supported. Several constraints on management practices and regulations are incorporated into each class. Restrictive or "special" regulations are necessary for Wild A and Trophy stream fisheries to ensure targets of acceptable standing crop, catch success and fish size. Accumulating evidence from elsewhere suggests that special regulations are effective
