SKEENA RIVER STEELHEAD

A pilot array was designed and deployed in the Skeena and Bulkley River system by Kintama to test the technical feasibility of using acoustic technology in the free-flowing Skeena to determine the survival and migratory behaviour of returning adult steelhead. Fish were collected and tagged at two sites: (a) the Tyee sockeye test fishery near the Skeena River mouth and (b) a site located 300 m below the Moricetown Falls in the Bulkley River canyon.
