Kispiox River Steelhead Trout: the 1975 Sport Fishery and Life History Characteristics from Anglers' Catches

During the months of September, October, and November of 1975, a creel survey and catch sampling program was conducted on the Kispiox River to gather information on the steelhead fishery including angler origin, effort, methods used, and success. Scale samples, lengths and weights were also collected from the anglers' catches for a life history analysis. The survey was based upon the voluntary return of census forms by anglers; the census was therefore not a total survey of all anglers.
