Rates of Movement and Timing of Migrations of Steelhead Trout To and Within the Skeena River, 1988

Summer-run steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) returning to the Skeena River system were radio-tagged to determine their rates of movement through commercial salmon fisheries near the river mouth. The run timing of individual spawning population was also investigated as were riverine migrations through sport fisheries on the mainstream Skeena.
