This report addresses issues concerning the Class I angling water designation of the Zymoetz River. Attributes associated with the Zymoetz River's Class I angling water designation, conflicting resource values, and outstanding interagency issues are...

This report summarizes fish and fish habitat values within the Copper River watershed and describes impacts to both the fisheries resource and riparian habitats regulating from forest development and harvesting activities. Recommendations for further...

These reports summarize the reconnaissance level fish and fish habitat inventories for various locations along the Bulkley River. Sensitive habitats and barriers are discussed, and fish summary tables and images are provided for the creeks examined within...

This paper presents data collected during a creel census conducted in the years 1978 and 1979, and includes information on angler harvest and success, and life histories of Zymoetz-Clore steelhead.

In 1999, the Ministry of Environment, Lands, and Parks surveyed portions of the Upper Skeena River and Kispiox Rivers during September 1999 for juvenile steelhead and fry and parr abundance. This report summarizes the results of those surveys and provides a...

A preliminary survey of the Skeena River Indigenous net fishery was conducted in 1987 to improve on existing data. The objective of the study was to estimate Indigenous effort on the Skeena.

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...

Buckley Lake was sampled September 8-10, 2003 by Skeena Region Fisheries staff in an effort to address: 1) rainbow trout history characteristics; and 2) provide advice to Skeena Region Protected Areas staff on the sensitivity of the population to angler...

The Morice Water Management Area (MWMA) was established in 2007 by the Morice Land and Resource Management Plan with the intent to protect the hydrological integrity, water quality, water quantity, and fisheries of the upper Morice River watershed. The...

Conservation scientists rarely have the information required to understand changes in abundance over more than a few decades, even for important species like Pacific salmon. Such lack of historical information can underestimate the magnitude of decline for...

The primary purpose of the project was to provide accurate data about coho salmon which return to the Upper Bulkley to spawn. Information about Upper Bulkley returns previously indicated a dangerously low level of returning fish.

The Morice LRMP provides policy direction on the management of land and resources in the Morice LRMP area, and provides direction for the establishment of landscape level legal objectives. There are four main sections to the plan: General Management...

This report summarizes past fish inventory efforts and results in context with data collected during re-sampling to present a comprehensive picture of fish distribution in the upper Peter-Aleck drainage.

The purpose of this project was to compile existing fisheries information relating to fish species under provincial jurisdiction and, where appropriate, add the information to the FISS database. Additionally, as part of the project, an overview of fisheries...

This project was implemented to assess fish passage at culvert-bearing stream crossings. These assessments were carried out at culvert crossings installed on fish-bearing streams on roads primarily constructed prior to the implementation of the Forest...

This survey collected information about the fish species that are present in McQuarrie Lake, as well as information about the physical characteristics of the lake. This included oxygen and temperature profiles, water chemistry data, obstructions,...

Seymour lake is tested about once a month for dissolved oxygen, conductivity, pH, alkalinity, total hardness, total Chlorine, water temperature and Secchi depth.

This report summarizes the results of the stream assessments, which were completed between July 14 and October 22, 2008. All evaluated drainages are within the Babine Lake (BABL), Babine River (BABR), Bulkley River (BULK), Francois Lake (FRAN), Morice River...

The purpose of these projects was to compile and summarize all fisheries information collected in the Burns Lake area throughout the Babine Forest Products Company (BFP) operating area during operational fish inventories conducted during the 2000 field...

Studies were undertaken during 1984 to evaluate aquatic resources in the Telkwa Project study area in west-central British Columbia. Stream periphyton, invertebrates and fish populations were assessed in Goathorn and Tenas creeks and the lower Telkwa River....
