Total angler effort and rainbow trout catch at Fulton and Pinkut Creeks in Babine Lake was estimated from May 1 to June 9, 1990 to document the catch of mature or spawner size fish. At Fulton, anglers fished for 313 days (average length = 2.39 h) and caught...

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"...

FRB Technical Reports are research documents that are of sufficient importance to be preserved, but which for some reason are not appropriate for scientific publication.

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,...

Babine Lake is the largest unimpounded lake entirely within the province of British Columbia, and likely receives more annual angler days than any other lake in Skeena Region. It is also the most important sockeye salmon nursery lake in the Skeena...

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 purpose of this report is to compare the incidence of circuli formed after the annulus (Fig. 1) (referred to here as "new growth") on the scales of early migrants with that on scales of the late migrants for the years 1958 to 1965.

An additional report regarding the tag-recapture program instituted in cooperation with fishing lodges on the Babine River, aiming to provide some ancillary biological information.

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.

This paper represents a habitat modelling process which estimates the carrying capacity through developing physical and biological processes which interact in ways governed by general biological or biophysical laws. These interactions lead to a calculated...
