Skeena River Steelhead Stock- Assessment Program: 1994 Catch and Escapement M...
During 1994, a large scale stock-assessment program was implemented to determine the status of steelhead and coho populations in the Skeena River. Catches in commercial fisheries were to be monitored by means of a fishery observer program. Escapements were... -
Skeena River Steelhead Stock Assessment Program: Estimation of the 1994 Comme...
The 1994 steelhead catches in the commercial fishery of Area 4 were estimated by reference to the steelhead:sockeye ratio from observer records, and adjusted hail reports. The estimates obtained indicated that approximately 8494 steelhead were caught in... -
Assessment of Wild Steelhead Abundance Trends in British Columbia (1967/68-19...
Intra-regional similarities and inter-regional differences in wild steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) abundance patterns over time throughout British Columbia were identified using Catch-per-Angler-Day (CpAD) as an index of abundance of wild in-river adult... -
The 1995 Skeena River Gillnet and Seine Sampling Program
The 1995 Skeena River Fisheries Technician Program was tasked to work on grounds monitoring the area 4 gillnet and special seine fishery. The project was timed to coincide with peak catches of steelhead expected in and around the Skeena River mouth. The... -
Surveys of Native Food Fisheries for Steelhead in the Skeena River System
Skeena River steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) are subjected to commercial, native and sport fisheries as they migrate to their spawning areas. Standardized surveys are conducted to estimate fishing effort and catch in the commercial fishery (hail data, sales... -

Steelhead Trout Productivity and Stream Carrying Capacity for Rivers of the S...
The Skeena River contains the major proportion of British Columbia's summer-run steelhead trout. These fish are a highly-prized sports fish which are intercepted in commercial fisheries targeting mainly on sockeye and pink salmon. To manage steelhead more... -
Steelhead Migration Behaviour and Timing as Evaluated from Radio Tagging at t...
This study is a continuation of radio telemetry work conducted previously. The purpose of this study was to further refine stock specific run timing for steelhead within the Skeena River watershed. A secondary objective was to obtain migration rate data. -
Skeena River Selective Harvest Monitoring Projects
The purpose of this study is to quantitate and validate native fish harvests (food fishery harvests and excess salmon spawning requirement [ESSR] harvests) and releases in 1995. The reports analyze different methods of harvest used by indigenous communities... -

The purpose of the Reconnaissance (1:20 000) Fish and Fish Habitat Inventory is to describe watershed-wide fish distributions and habitat characteristics for the project area. Information was collected on the biological and physical stream characteristics,... -
Recent Trends in the Catchability of Sockeye Salmon in the Skeena River Gilln...
The Skeena River Salmon Management Committee established the Skeena River gillnet test fishery in 1955. The test fishery is used to monitor sockeye and pink salmon escapement during the management season (June-September). As a secondary function, the test... -
Migration Timing and Harvest Rates of the Steelhead Trout Populations of the ...
Migration timing and harvest rates of steelhead trout were examined in relation to the harvest of sockeye salmon in the mixed-stock fishery of the Skeena River. Summer-run steelhead overlap in their migration timing with sockeye salmon to a significant... -
Habitat Restoration & Salmon Enhancement Program (HRSEP) 1998/99 Summary Report
The Habitat Restoration and Salmon Enhancement Program (HRSEP) was established in 1996/97 to complement the Pacific Salmon Revitalization Strategy. The main objective of the federally funded HRSEP is to revitalize salmonid populations in British Columbia... -
