The Return of Sockeye Salmon Marked at Babine and Lakelse Lakes
The marking of young migrant salmon by removing certain fins is a well-established practice. The recapture of such individuals may provide information on times and routes of migration; the degree to which fish return to their "home" streams or "wander"... -

This report provides details of the catches of marked and unmarked sockeye and incidental catches of other species made in the course of the Babine Lake recovery program. -
Manuscript Report Series No.1189: Purse Seine Catches of Sockeye Salmon and O...
This report gives details of the catches of sockeye and other species of fish made in the course of fishing to recover marked sockeye during the spring, summer and fall after their entry into the lake beginning in 1971. -

This report deals with the catches of sockeye and other species of fish made in the course of fishing for marked sockeye during the spring, summer and fall after their entry into the Babine Lake (1966-1968). -
Evaluation of Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus Nerka) Production from the Babine ...
Babine Lake Development Project (BLDP) intended to increase the number of sockeye salmon fry rearing in the main basin of Babine lake along with adult returns and commercial catch. This paper takes a look at the BLDP and reviews its effects and... -
Assessment of Sockeye Salmon Production in Babine Lake, British Columbia with...
This report provides a comprehensive assessment of sockeye production from the Babine-Nilkitkwa system in that it brings together, for the first time in many years, recently compiled information on trends in spawning escapements by run timing group, fry... -
Assessment of Juvenile Sockeye Salmon Populations of Babine Lake
This study aims to find evidence of changes in the abundance of sockeye relative to spawning numbers, and evidence of the dispersal and subsequent distribution of juveniles in the lake to determine the extent to which the available lake nursery area is... -
Assessment of Freshwater Production of Sockeye Salmon in Babine Lake
This paper is intended as the first step towards a comprehensive assessment of the status of Babine Lake sockeye salmon. The primary objective of this paper is to assess the status of freshwater production of salmon in Babine lake and to provide corrected... -
Analysis of Ultrasonic Tracking Records of Adult Sockeye Salmon Migration in ...
Migratory pathways of adult sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) on their way to the spawning grounds in Babine Lake were monitored by ultrasonic tracking techniques in 1969 and 1970. This report presents procedures and computer programs used for processing... -
An Investigation of Sockeye Egg Survival in Babine Lake
This investigation aims to characterize and map the shallow water nearshore habitat of Babine Lake and assess the value of this habitat for spawning sockeye and egg survival. -
A Review of the Limnology and Sockeye Salmon Ecology of Babine Lake
This literature review summarizes the academic understanding of Babine Lake ecosystems during the 1980s, also providing information on the log storage and handling aspects at the time. -
A Review of the Babine Lake Development Project 1961-1976
This report describes the results of the Babine Development Project evaluation program relative to the individual components within project, containing components which describe the individual projects from the predevelopment stage to the present. -
A Polymorphic Population of Oncorhynchus Nerka at Babine Lake, B.C. Involving...
This thesis studies the reproductive behavior, life cycles, and physical differences between Kokanee and Sockeye salmon in the Babine Lake streams, along with the possible causes for these differences. -
The Babine Lake Salmon Development Program Progress Report, 1968
Studies conducted by the Fisheries Research Board of Canada have indicated that sockeye fry densities are consistently lower in the main basin than in North Arm, despite similar densities of planktonic organisms. Basic productivity, as measured by the... -
Timing of Babine Lake Sockeye Salmon Stocks in the North-coast Commercial Fis...
Approximate timing of Babine Lake stocks in the fishing area has been shown by tagging there and in the Skeena River estuary, and recovering tagged fish on Babine Lake spawning grounds (see Takagi and Smith MS 1973 for a summary). However, mixing with other... -
Proposed Sockeye Salmon Development Program for Babine Lake
The purpose of this report is to review evidence bearing on the potential of Babine lake as a sockeye producer and examine means by which the potential may be exploited. -
Hydroacoustic Assessment of Juvenile Sockeye Salmon in Babine Lake, British C...
This paper aims to assess the lacustrine distribution of juvenile sockeye salmon and estimate their total numbers at the latest practicable time before severe autumn lake conditions render such work impossible (1982). -
Evidence for Size-Selective Mortality of Juvenile Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchu...
The purpose of this study is to ascertain the effect of body size at emergence on the subsequent survival of sockeye salmon fry in Babine Lake, British Columbia. -
Digging Behaviour of Oncorhynchus Nerka Spawning in Streams at Babine Lake, B...
