Preliminary Estimate of the Escapement of Summer Steelhead to the Nass River,...
Abundance estimates of the summer steelhead escapement to the Nass River was estimated with mark-recapture methods. The preliminary estimate was exploratory in nature and the primary objective of the marking and recovery of steelhead were marked with... -
Morice River Stream Survey August 1975
A survey investigating the fish, and especially the steelhead values, of the small feeder creeks of the Morice River was conducted from August 6-15, 1975. The biological data included fish species present, invertebrates, in-stream and bank vegetation,... -
Morice River Steelhead Trout: the 1976 and 1977 Sport Fishery and Life Histor...
The Morice River, located in West-central British Columbia, is one of several Skeena River tributaries that support a late summer and fall sport fishery for steelhead trout. In response to declining angler success on the Morice over the past decade, an... -
Morice River Steelhead Fry Monitoring
On August 17-19, 1983, steelhead fry populations at index sites in two Morice River tributaries, Owen and Lamprey Creeks, were sampled by Regional staff as part of the supervisory role of F.H.I.S. The purpose of this report is two-fold; firstly to report... -
Mean Smolt Age Estimation and Under-Aging Bias of Nass River Steelhead Popula...
In the Nass River watershed, juvenile and adult steelhead scales were collected to summarize the mean smolt ages for major summer and winter steelhead populations, and to investigate the lack of the first-year annulus formation which results in under-aging... -
Kispiox River Steelhead Trout: the 1975 Sport Fishery and Life History Charac...
During the months of September, October, and November of 1975, a creel survey and catch sampling program was conducted on the Kispiox River to gather information on the steelhead fishery including angler origin, effort, methods used, and success. Scale... -
An Evaluation of Fish Habitat and Fish Populations in Toboggan Creek, Near Sm...
Toboggan Creek, a small tributary of the Bulkley River near Smithers was studied September 27 through October 1, 1978. Objectives of the project
 were to assess fish habitat and present fish population status in the stream, and to outline methods for... -
Abundance and Life History Characteristics of Adult Cranberry River Steelhead...
The abundance of adult Cranberry River steelhead was estimated with mark-recapture sampling in 26 of the 30 river kilometres of the identified main overwintering habitat. Steelhead were marked with numbered Floy anchor tags and adipose fin clips which... -
A Review of the Limnology and Sockeye Salmon Ecology of Babine Lake
This literature review summarizes the academic understanding of Babine Lake ecosystems during the 1980s, also providing information on the log storage and handling aspects at the time. -
Acute and Sublethal Copper Sensitivity, Growth and Saltwater Survival in Youn...
A series of experiments was conducted during the spring, summer and fall of 1977 to determine the potential copper toxicity hazard to Babine Lake sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) fry, lake fingerlings and smolts. Acute 96 h LC50's were determined for the... -
A Habitat-Based Model of Steelhead Carrying Capacity for the Skeena River
This paper represents a habitat modelling process which estimates the carrying capacity through developing physical and biological processes which interact in ways governed by general biological or biophysical laws. These interactions lead to a calculated...
