Skeena Salmon
Data Centre

Th objectives of the enumeration program were to index the Upper Sustut river steelhead population, examine the sex, number, growth, and size distribution of previously tagged steelhead, examine the effect of water height and temperature on steelhead...

Radio transmitters were placed in 102 Skeena River steelhead during the summers of 1978 and 1979 in order to determine time of entry of specific stocks into the estuary and their potential interception by the commercial gillnet fishery.

This report summarizes age, size, and sex for the steelhead sampled at Tyee in four years (1973 - 1976) of test fishing. Comparisons are made with similar information on specific stocks in the Skeena, Kispiox, and Babine Rivers.

This report discusses the attempts that British Columbians are making in the effort to protect and manage salmon habitat. They also describe the relevant legislation, policy, and regulation, science and technology, as well as government and "stakeholder"...

A preliminary study of the juvenile salmonid populations of the Upper Kalum River and its tributaries was conducted during August 1976. The objectives of the study were: to locate and describe the preferred rearing habitat of juvenile salmonids in the Kalum...

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 project objectives for Maxan creek were to remove the Strimbold Bridge that is impacting fish habitat and likely a barrier to fish passage at some flows, and may pose an environmental risk if washed downstream due to flood event.

The objectives of this plan are three-fold. First, the plan describes the methods that will be used to quantify the amount of compensatory fish habitat needed to offset the harmful alteration, disruption, or destruction (HADD) resulting from the Project....

Test fishing at Tyee was conducted by Fisheries and Marine Service from the first week in June until the last week in August, using standardized drift gillnet sets to monitor the timing and abundance of salmon.

The project was designed to capture wild juveniles of these species during or before their seaward migration, and mark them by inserting a coded wire tag in their snout and removing the adipose fin. The marked fish would then be released. In this manner,...

This report summarizes the salmon-bearing regions that would be intersected by the Enbridge Northern Gateway Project. It analyzes the potential effects of pipeline spills and development to spawning and rearing grounds and to migration.

These reports study the sport fishery for cutthroat trout in the Lakelse watershed. They include a description of the study area, the resident species, angler effort and success, angler distribution, and cutthroat trout life history.

Natural Resource Stewardship Monitoring and Assessment Reports are a summary of existing resource value monitoring and assessment information for a given geographic area. Data in this report has been arranged into the following categories: fish and water,...

This study had the following objectives: provide a source upon which the habitat protection section of the fish and wildlife branch could base protection guidelines, provide Northwood with an assessment of fishery values and related habitat which would be...

The prime purpose for this study was to determine if the number of steelhead kelts caught in a tidal gill net sockeye salmon fishery could be reduced. Subsequently, the objectives were expanded to generate information on steelhead population size, patterns...

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...

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 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...

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...

The objective of this project was to conduct a Reconnaissance (1:20,000) Fish and Fish Habitat Inventory in several drainages in the Bulkley River watershed. This included portions of the Crow and Maxan Creek watersheds in addition to three small...
