The Age, Size, and Sex Composition of Sockeye in the Escapements to Shculbuck...
For many years, estimates of the abundance of the spawning stock of sockeye salmon to Lakelse Lake have been made and recorded in the Confidential Annual Reports of the Fisheries Research Board, Biological Station, Nanaimo. During the years 1944-1956 and... -
Skeena Salmon Test Fishery 1987
Information relating to the Skeena River gillnet test fishery program for 1987 and a summary for the years 1955 to 1976 is presented in this report. Daily catch of all salmon species (Oncorhynchus~) and steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri) are detailed by set... -
Maternal Influences on the Age at Maturity of Skeena River Sockeye Salmon (On...
The purpose of these studies was to examine maternal influences on age at maturity of Skeena River sockeye salmon which, when considered along with several other correlated phenomena, lead to an hypothesis of alternation of generations. -
Fish Population Monitoring in Foxy and Buck Creeks
Sampling at fish index sites was conducted at five locations in Foxy and Buck creeks for Equity Silver Mines Ltd. from September 1988 to 1991. -
Comparison of the Fecundity of Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) in the Ske...
Skeena River sockeye salmon are caught by the fishery mainly with gillnets. It is generally recognized that gillnets are selective for size. Foskett (1958) compared the size of sockeye sampled from the Rivers Inlet catch with the size of those sampled from... -
Abundance, age, size, sex and coded wire tag recoveries for chinook salmon es...
A key streams program was initiated in 1984 by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans to monitor the success of management actions in several important chinook producing streams throughout British Columbia. The objectives of the key streams program are: 1)... -
A Review of Stock Assessment Information for Skeena River Chinook
Skeena management has changed significantly over the last decade, particularly since 1993 with the formation of the Skeena Watershed Committee. Interest, concern, and the need for chinook assessments on the Skeena are high. PSARC reviewed Skeena chinook in... -
Evaluating Relationships between Wild Skeena River Sockeye Salmon Productivit...
In Canada’s Skeena Watershed, smolt-to-adult survival of Babine Lake sockeye from 1962–2002 was inversely related to the abundance of sockeye smolts leaving Babine Lake. This relationship has led to the concern that Babine Lake smolt production, which is... -
Reconstruction of the Total Return of Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) to ...
An assessment of the total return of sockeye salmon to the Skeena River is presented for brood years from 1965 to 1982. Annual reconstructions required catch and spawning escapement data. Age structure information was used to apportion the catch and... -
Stock Assessment of Early Run Skeena River Coho Salmon and Recommendations
Concerns have previously been expressed for the stock status of early run Skeena River coho salmon because of declining escapement levels. Available data on spawning escapements and subsequent recruitment were analyzed using a Ricker model under various... -
Age and Physical Characteristics of Maturing Chinook Salmon of the Nass, Skee...
During the last several years the Department of Fisheries of Canada has conducted "test-fishing" operations on the Nass, Skeena and Fraser rivers in order to obtain information on the magnitude and composition of the salmon spawning escapements. The... -
The Incidence of Regenerated Scales Among Fraser River and Skeena River Socke...
Scales of 4 and 5 year-old Skeena River and 4 year-old Fraser River sockeye of the 1963 brood year were examined for the incidence of regenerated scales. For the Skeena and Fraser 4 year-old sockeye the incidence of regenerated scales was 11.1% and 8.2%,... -
Evaluation of the Sampling of the Skeena River 1968 Sockeye Catch
This report outlines the evaluation of the Skeena River 1968 Sockeye Catch. The sampling of sockeye and chum salmon was reduced in 1968 after a statistical evaluation was made to determine the effort required to provide reliable estimates of the age, size... -
Age and Size of Rainbow Trout at the Outlet of Babine Lake and in Babine River
Rainbow trout are the most important sport fish in terms of angling effort in the Babine Lake system. Griffiths (1968) has reported on the age and growth of rainbow trout in the main part of Babine Lake but little or no information exists for Babine River.... -
