The status of the Nanika River Sockeye Rehabilitation Program 1960-1965
The Nanika River, which drains into Morice Lake, is the most valuable sockeye spawning stream in the Bulkley River system. The available data indicate that the pre-1954 escapements ranged within the general magnitude of 20,000 and 70,000 fish annually.... -
The Age, Size, and Sex Composition of Sockeye in the Escapements to Shculbuck...
For many years, estimates of the abundance of the spawning stock of sockeye salmon to Lakelse Lake have been made and recorded in the Confidential Annual Reports of the Fisheries Research Board, Biological Station, Nanaimo. During the years 1944-1956 and... -

This report summarizes the data collected during the July to November 1995 period and describes the fate and timing information of steelhead movements to the end of November 1995. Fishwheels operated by the Kitselas Band Office were used to catch and apply... -
Comparison of the Fecundity of Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) in the Ske...
Skeena River sockeye salmon are caught by the fishery mainly with gillnets. It is generally recognized that gillnets are selective for size. Foskett (1958) compared the size of sockeye sampled from the Rivers Inlet catch with the size of those sampled from... -

Biophysical Stream Survey of Fourteen Sockeye Streams Tributary to Babine-Nil...
This stream inventory aims to employ a biophysical method of aquatic systems inventory to the fourteen sockeyes streams, experiment with methodology based on low-level Arial inventory, and provide Fisheries Service personnel with a better data base. -
Assessment of Sockeye Salmon Production in Babine Lake, British Columbia with...
This report provides a comprehensive assessment of sockeye production from the Babine-Nilkitkwa system in that it brings together, for the first time in many years, recently compiled information on trends in spawning escapements by run timing group, fry... -
Assessment of Freshwater Production of Sockeye Salmon in Babine Lake
This paper is intended as the first step towards a comprehensive assessment of the status of Babine Lake sockeye salmon. The primary objective of this paper is to assess the status of freshwater production of salmon in Babine lake and to provide corrected... -
Timing of Babine Lake Sockeye Salmon Stocks in the North-coast Commercial Fis...
Approximate timing of Babine Lake stocks in the fishing area has been shown by tagging there and in the Skeena River estuary, and recovering tagged fish on Babine Lake spawning grounds (see Takagi and Smith MS 1973 for a summary). However, mixing with other... -
Prospects for the 1948 Salmon Catch on the Skeena River
From time to time enquiries have been made of the investigators as to their opinions of the size of runs which can be expected in a given area in an approaching season. For that reason the following comments are being recorded for the Skeena river in 1948.... -
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... -
Proposed Sockeye Salmon Development Program for Babine Lake
The purpose of this report is to review evidence bearing on the potential of Babine lake as a sockeye producer and examine means by which the potential may be exploited. -
Babine Lake Sockeye Salmon: Stock Status and Forecasts for 1998
This paper aims to provide a comprehensive assessment of sockeye production from the Babine-Nilkitkwa system it brings together recently (~1990s) compiled information on trends in spawning escapements by run timing group, fry recruitment, smolt production,... -
Assessment of the Babine Lake Sockeye Development Program
This assessment aims to determine if the production of adult sockeye is directly attributable to the Babine Development Project and study the factors limiting production of Babine Lake Sockeye.
