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... -
Value of Information in Pacific Salmon Fishery Management: the Skeena River T...
A Monte Carlo simulation model of the commercial gillnet fishery for sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) returning to the Skeena River, British Columbia, is used to evaluate the benefits of forecasts of annual returns of sockeye salmon based on test fishery... -
The Commercial Harvest of Salmon in British Columbia 1820-1877
This report reviews archival data on the earliest harvest of Pacific salmon in British Columbia by Europeans, first considering subsistence and export production by the Hudson's Bay Company and then the export production by the private entrepreneurs during... -
Summaries of The Moricetown Falls Steelhead and Coho Release Project
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... -
Skeena Sockeye In-River Run Reconstruction Analysis Model and Analysis Result...
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... -
Skeena River Selective Harvest Monitoring Projects
The purpose of this study is to quantitate and validate native fish harvests (food fishery harvests and excess salmon spawning requirement [ESSR] harvests) and releases in 1995. The reports analyze different methods of harvest used by indigenous communities... -
