An Inventory of Elwin Lake and its Inlet and Outlet Streams
Recent reports of serious declines of the rainbow trout sport fishery in this region have created a need for more information on the annual recruitment and relative species composition of these lakes. The intent of this project was to survey fish... -
Upper Zymoetz (Copper River) WRP Overview Fish and Riparian Assessment
This report summarizes fish and fish habitat values within the Copper River watershed and describes impacts to both the fisheries resource and riparian habitats regulating from forest development and harvesting activities. Recommendations for further... -

This report summarizes the stock status, and current data available on, the upper Sustut, lower Sustut, and Bear River steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) populations. The upper Sustut and lower Sustut/Bear sub-populations differ markedly in their life-history... -
Upper Skeena and Kispiox River Juvenile Steelhead Surveys 1999
In 1999, the Ministry of Environment, Lands, and Parks surveyed portions of the Upper Skeena River and Kispiox Rivers during September 1999 for juvenile steelhead and fry and parr abundance. This report summarizes the results of those surveys and provides a... -
Upper Bulkley River Steelhead Population Monitoring
The upper Bulkley River system, near Houston, was first assessed by the Fish Habitat Improvement Section in 1981. The initial assessment identified probably areas of importance for steelhead recruitment and juvenile rearing. In 1982 an index sampling... -
Survey of Bulkley Lake and its Inlet and Outlet Streams
Recent reports of serious declines of the rainbow trout sport fishery in this region have created a need for information on the annual recruitment and relative species composition at these lakes. The most recent concern has been an outburst of beaver... -
Some Notes on the Habits and Habitat of Steelhead Trout in the Kispiox River ...
During the spring and summer of 1976, two investigations funded through the salmonid enhancement program were conducted on the steelhead trout of the Kispiox River. The first project, commencing in April and ending in August, was designed to document the... -
Results of the Kloiya River Resistivity Counter
The objective of this study was to quantify juvenile steelhead abundance and estimate values for habitat capacity thresholds. In 2005, the Ministry of Environment (MoE) began investigating the potential of using the Kloiya as an index stream for monitoring... -
