Update Assessment of Sockeye Salmon Production from Babine Lake, British Colu...
Wood et al. (1998) provided the last formal assessment of sockeye production from Babine Lake using production data spanning the 1950-1996 return years (1950-1991 brood years). This update adds 14 more years to the data series (1950-2010 return years,... -
Some Aspects of Food and Growth of Fish Species in Babine Lake
Food preferences and growth rates of various fish species in Babine Lake were analyzed. Kokanee fed primarily on plankton and insects, with no fish recorded in the diet. Insects were generally the most significant component of the diet of rainbow trout,... -
