Studies conducted by the Fisheries Research Board of Canada have indicated that sockeye fry densities are consistently lower in the main basin than in North Arm, despite similar...

Approximate timing of Babine Lake stocks in the fishing area has been shown by tagging there and in the Skeena River estuary, and recovering tagged fish on Babine Lake spawning...

The Fisheries Service of the Department of the Environment is currently attempting to increase sockeye production by increasing the number of fry entering the lake, thus making...

These habitat report cards were developed by the Pacific Salmon Foundation with technical support from ESSA Technologies. This project summarizes pressures on habitat used by...

In Canada’s Skeena Watershed, smolt-to-adult survival of Babine Lake sockeye from 1962–2002 was inversely related to the abundance of sockeye smolts leaving Babine Lake. This...

From time to time enquiries have been made of the investigators as to their opinions of the size of runs which can be expected in a given area in an approaching season. For that...

An assessment of the total return of sockeye salmon to the Skeena River is presented for brood years from 1965 to 1982. Annual reconstructions required catch and spawning...

The chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) escapements to the Skeena River have declined from 1950 to 1973 (Figure 1). In 1973, restrictions on sport and commercial fisheries...

The Kemano Completion Project is massive. The Aluminum Company of Canada (Alcan) proposes a capital expenditure in excess of $2.2 billion which could increase aluminum...

Concerns have previously been expressed for the stock status of early run Skeena River coho salmon because of declining escapement levels. Available data on spawning escapements...

Hydrographical studies have been undertaken since 1971 by the Fisheries and Marine Service in the prime spawning areas of the Nanika and Morice Rivers. The purpose of the...

Possible causes of low egg-to-fry survival of sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) in the Babine Lake artificial spawning channels were studied from November, 1971 to March,...

A comparative study of the distribution, growth, and survival of sockeye salmon fry resulting from the same parental stocks, but reared in natural and artificial conditions...

During the last several years the Department of Fisheries of Canada has conducted "test-fishing" operations on the Nass, Skeena and Fraser rivers in order to obtain information...

This report investigated the means by which shoreline anglers played and landed coho and steelhead, as well as observing the method of release and ultimate physical condition of...

Rainbow trout are the most important sport fish in terms of angling effort in the Babine Lake system. Griffiths (1968) has reported on the age and growth of rainbow trout in the...

This report which represents a general summary of the known information on the salmon stocks of the Bulkley River system, has been prepared in order to: (a) describe the effect...

The objective of this report is to outline present standing crop and an estimate of carrying capacity for juvenile steelhead in the Bulkley-Morice River system.

The purpose of this literature review is to provide a compilation of the published sockeye salmon fish literature on Morrison and Tahlo Lakes with references where appropriate...

This study investigates overwinter mortality by radio tagging steelhead in the upper Sustut River and monitoring their survival between the beginning of September, 1998, and...
