1996 Lower Skeena River Chinook Salmon Creel Survey and Biological Sampling Program

The 1996 Lower Skeena River Chinook Salmon Creel Survey & Biological Sampling Program was carried out between the mouth of the Kitsumkalum River and PoIymar Bar from April 25 to July 8 with the use of both riverboat and vehicle. The program was conducted to obtain information on, and to generate estimates of, angling effort, catch and species composition (through angler interviews), and to collect chinook biosamples so that the stock composition of chinooks (through genetic coding methods) caught in the sports fishery can be determined.
