Evaluation of the efforts made to design a mark-recapture program that could potentially meet several objective in a cost-effective fashion.

This report describes a daily simulation model for the Area 4 commercial gillnet fishery. The model evaluates the effects of various gillnet fishing patterns on the catch and...

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...

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...

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 River Guardians conducted a creel survey of Bulkley River steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) anglers from late August until mid November. Two River Guardian teams collected...

This series documents the scientific basis for the evaluation of aquatic resources and ecosystems in Canada.

The objectives of the project were to determine angler effort, catch and success rate as well as angler origin, distribution of effort by time and space, and tackle preference.

The Bulkley River and its major tributary, Morice River, support one of the most intense steelhead trout fisheries in British Columbia. Although on—river creel surveys have been...

This paper provides data on juvenile densities throughout the Skeena watershed in the year following record low escapements and documents the responses in escapement to the...

The objective of the present investigation is to formulate an approach that could potentially be used for decision making purposed.

Morice River steelhead anglers were surveyed during the 2004 Classified Waters Period using a combination of interviews and aerial counts. During the early Classified Waters...

The Kispiox River in the Skeena Region of northwestern British Columbia (B.C.) is well known for providing a high quality steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) recreational fishery....

This paper presents a risk assessment simulation model for Skeena River sockeye salmon harvested in marine and in-river fisheries in northern British Columbia. This paper also...

This report reviews management actions and documents how management decisions for commercial fisheries in Areas 3, 4, and 5 were made, what information was used, how it was...

Increasing angling pressure combined with intensive logging in the upper watershed and growing human development in the lower watershed during recent years prompted the B.C....

Population and fishery dynamics are modelled to assess performance of alternative harvest policies for chinook that spawn in western North America. The sensitivity of model...

This assessment covers coho salmon of the Skeena River. The status of coho populations grouped by sub-regions is presented, and recommendations are made for the further...

A complemented creel survey was undertaken on the Bulkley River involving an access point survey, a roving survey, and aerial flights (i.e., survey design was access-roving)...

The objectives of this study were to monitor the encounter rates of all species landed by angles in each fishery, report and assess the gear used in the fisheries, and assess...
