This paper presents data collected during a creel census conducted in the years 1978 and 1979, and includes information on angler harvest and success, and life histories of Zymoetz-Clore steelhead.

The purpose of this report is to provide an indication of the net economic value of the fisheries stocks in the Bulkley river system. This is done by assessing current and future values of recreational, commercial and, to some degree, Indigenous fishing...

Steelhead and coho returning to the Bulkley and Morice rivers pass through Moricetown between late July and late September. The "early" component of this steelhead run, and the entire upper-Bulkley and Morice River coho runs, are severely depressed as a...

This study is a continuation of radio telemetry work conducted previously. The purpose of this study was to further refine stock specific run timing for steelhead within the Skeena River watershed. A secondary objective was to obtain migration rate data.

This report provides a brief outline of a Skeena Sockeye In-River (SSIR) run reconstruction model built to combine information on run timing and escapements for Skeena sockeye sub-stocks with catch estimates for each sockeye fishery within the Skeena...

The purpose of this regional planning statement is to provide long term direction for fisheries management in the Skeena region. This is accomplished through analysis of fish production, fishery utilization and management strategies over the next 10 to 20...

A preliminary survey of the Skeena River Indigenous net fishery was conducted in 1987 to improve on existing data. The objective of the study was to estimate Indigenous effort on the Skeena.

This report provides details on the methods used to convert the escapement estimates for indicator stream into total escapement estimates for each SA and CU as well as a description of the methods used to estimate the exploitation rates needed to compute...

The Morice River, located in West-central British Columbia, is one of several Skeena River tributaries that support a late summer and fall sport fishery for steelhead trout. In response to declining angler success on the Morice over the past decade, an...

The report is a short review of recent events and assesses current trends of the Skeena sockeye situation.

This report is concerned with the results of age composition sampling sockeye, pink and chum salmon catches in 1966.

This report discusses the trade-off fisheries managers are faced with that remains unresolved – how to reap the benefits from commercially valuable stocks while maintaining diversity essential for sustainability.

The following material describes a creel survey conducted during April-October, 1986 on Lakelse Lake as part of a Canada Employment and Immigration sponsored employment opportunity program (Modified Industrial Labour Adjustment Program or "MILAP"). T h e...

This report describes a daily simulation model for the Area 4 commercial gillnet fishery. The model evaluates the effects of various gillnet fishing patterns on the catch and escapement of sockeye, steelhead (including sub-stocks), early-run coho, chinook,...

This paper presents a risk assessment simulation model for Skeena River sockeye salmon harvested in marine and in-river fisheries in northern British Columbia. This paper also provides production and stock status background for Skeena River sockeye lakes....

Population and fishery dynamics are modelled to assess performance of alternative harvest policies for chinook that spawn in western North America. The sensitivity of model performance to variations in stock productivity and patterns of environment...

The objectives of this study were to monitor the encounter rates of all species landed by angles in each fishery, report and assess the gear used in the fisheries, and assess the release condition of all salmon, with an emphasis on coho.
