The Selective Action of Gillnets on Sockeye and Pink Salmon Stocks

The purpose of this study is to determine selective properties of nylon gillnet presently utilized in the Skeena river gillnet fishery, to relate selective properties and relative efficiency of nylon gear with linen gillnets, and to define the selective action of the fishery as a whole in terms of its mechanics and its possible long-term effects on the biological composition of the stocks
