This study examined the effects of release time on the migratory behaviour and survival of wild and hatchery-reared coho salmon using acoustic and coded-wire telemetry.

Technical reports contain scientific and technical information that contributes to existing knowledge but which is not normally appropriate for primary literature. Technical reports are directed primarily toward a worldwide audience and have an...

Water temperature, river discharge, and adult sockeye salmon migration observations in the Babine watershed, 1946-2014. Historical meteorological and hydrological data were assembled to review the influence of changes in these environmental factors on...

FO Habitat and Enhancement Branch initiated water quality monitoring in Toboggan Creek watershed in early 1996. Toboggan Creek is an important nursery stream for both wild and hatchery fish, primarily coho, pink, steelhead and Dolly Varden, with smaller...

Annual reports for Upper Bulkley River assessments at the Bulkley River Coho Assessment Fence approximately 6km upstream from the Upper Bulkley Morice confluence. Information collected includes fish species, number of individuals, and composition of wild...

The Toboggan Creek Hatchery attempts to preserve and enhance the stocks of Coho and Chinook salmon populations in the Bulkley-Morice drainages. This dataset includes annual reports on the brood, escapement and return for the Toboggan Creek Hatchery.

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...

The Wet'suwet'en Fisheries conducted an extensive coho and steelhead tagging program at Moricetown canyon in 1999, 2000, 2001, 2005, 2006, and 2007. The Department of Fisheries and Oceans will summarize coho data in a separate report. The analysis of...

During the spring and summer of 1976, two investigations funded through the salmonid enhancement program were conducted on the steelhead trout of the Kispiox River. The first project, commencing in April and ending in August, was designed to document the...

A floating PVC fish fence was installed into the upper Sustut River annually since 1992, as an indicator of annual upper Sustut River adult steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) abundance.

The objective of this study was to quantify juvenile steelhead abundance and estimate values for habitat capacity thresholds. In 2005, the Ministry of Environment (MoE) began investigating the potential of using the Kloiya as an index stream for monitoring...

Radio telemetry was used for the second consecutive migration year to determine the proportion of wild, Babine River adult summer run steelhead migrating through the Department of Fisheries and Oceans' enumeration weir, near the outlet of Nilkitkwa Lake....

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...

This report summarizes background fisheries information available for the Morrison Watershed. It focuses on Morrison Creek, Morrison Lake, and its inlet tributaries, with the objective of providing an overview of the fisheries resources of the entire...

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...

The Community Futures Development Corporation of Nadina operated a rotary screw trap (RST) on Buck Creek in the upper Bulkley River from August to November, 2000. The purpose of this study was to determine what portion of the coded wire tagged coho salmon...
