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...

A second objective in tagging sockeye salmon as they passed through the Babine fence into Nilkitkwa and Babine Lakes was to procure information on the quality and speed of...

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...

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,...
