A Review of the 1983 Commercial Salmon Net Fisheries in Northern B.C. (Areas ...
This report reviews management actions and documents how management decisions for commercial fisheries in Areas 3, 4, and 5 were made, what information was used, how it was interpreted and what the results were in terms of catch and escapement. -
A Fisheries Inventory of some Streams Within the Morrison Lake - Hatchery Arm...
This study had the following objectives: provide a source upon which the habitat protection section of the fish and wildlife branch could base protection guidelines, provide Northwood with an assessment of fishery values and related habitat which would be... -
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... -
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%,... -

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). -
Assessment of Sockeye and Pink Salmon Stocks in the Northern Boundary Area Us...
A multi-time-period method of stock reconstruction was used to estimate harvest and stock interception rates by area and time period, exploitation rates and total run size by stock. The data required for these reconstructions were catch by time and area,... -
