Toboggan Creek Coho Smolt Enumerations
The primary focus of the "Toboggan Creek Smolt Project" is to estimate the number of wild coho (0. kisutch) smolts leaving Toboggan Creek. Initiated in the spring of 1995, the study aimed to estimate wild coho populations of Toboggan Creek by comparison... -
Strategic Stock Enhancement Program Report Upper Skeena: 1998/1999/2000
The Upper Bulkley River coho are an extreme conservation concern. The objective for Upper Bulkley coho was to release up to 80K fry to rearing areas in the watershed that are currently under-utilized. Coho released as fry would be subjected to natural... -
Report on the Occurrence of Infectious Hematopoietic Necrosis Disease in Out-...
Infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) occurs naturally in wild and enhanced stocks of Sockeye Salmon, where it can result in severe infectious hematopoietic necrosis (IHN) disease. We report the occurrence of an IHN epizootic in Sockeye Salmon fry... -
Mission Creek Adult Coho Enumeration and Transport Program: 1998 Program Report

The objectives of this study were to monitor the encounter rates of all species landed by angles in each fishery, report and assess the gear used in the fisheries, and assess the release condition of all salmon, with an emphasis on coho. -
Sockeye Egg-to-Fry Mortality in the Fulton River Spawning Channels
Possible causes of low egg-to-fry survival of sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) in the Babine Lake artificial spawning channels were studied from November, 1971 to March, 1972. Concurrent studies were conducted on the Fulton River and Pinkut Creek... -
Fulton River Upwelling Gravel Incubator for Sockeye Salmon

Rationale and Follow-up on Terminating Nutrient Treatment of Morice Lake
Returns of sockeye salmon to the Morice-Nanika production system (tributary to the Skeena River) routinely exceeded 60,000 pieces prior to 1950. Between 1950 and 1955 escapements declined precipitously to only a few thousand adults and this condition has...
