Steelhead Tagging Projects at Moricetown Canyon

The Wet'suwet'en Fisheries conducted an extensive coho and steelhead tagging program at Moricetown canyon in 1999, 2000, 2001, 2005, 2006, and 2007. The Department of Fisheries and Oceans will summarize coho data in a separate report. The analysis of steelhead data is summarized in this report in conjunction with a report produced by the Wet'suwet'en Fisheries. The main objective of the steelhead tagging program was to develop in-season population estimates of adult steelhead moving through Moricetown canyon. This report summarizes mark-recapture data and presents adjusted Petersen estimates for steelhead moving through Moricetown canyon.
