Steelhead beaming radio

signals from the Skeena

RADIO STEELHEAD will be
broadcasting throughout the
Skeena watershed once again this
year.

Fisheries biologist “Mark Beere
said plans call for 301 radio trans-
mitiers to be inserted into. sum-

- mer run steelhead.

In this, the second year of the
program, all. the  radio-tagging

will be done at the three fish

wheels being operated in the Kit-
selgs Canyon by the Kitselas
band.

Last year, Beere said, 288 trans-
mitters were implanted in. steel-
head taken both at Kitselas Can-
yon and in commercial nets out-
side the mouth of the Skeena.

Three quarters of the fish were
successfully tracked’ up the river,
the rest being lost at sea, .

Beere attributed those lasses to

. fish released from the commercial:
_ boats. dying from the stress of

being netted and some recapture
in commercial nets.

He also suggested some of the
steelhead tagged at sea were not
Skeena system fish and simply

continued their migration down .

the coast once released. ;

Signals sent out by the radio
transmitters — they are placed in
the slomach of the fish -— will be

‘picked up by ‘receivers placed a

various’ points along the Skeena

~ and its tributaries,

Beere said the information
gathered by the receivers is used

_ ta get a picture of migration pat-

terns and estimate populations.

The largest number of tracked
fish last year went into the Bulk-
ley, with the Babine and Kispiox
being the. next most popular
destinations, ©. -

While that helps on the migra-
tion side, Beere admitted it is dif-
ficult. to extrapolate population

estimates fom the low numbers
of fish involved. ‘“We’re always
pretty cautious.”

Although the main intent of the’
radio tagging program was to
track fish coming into the system
from the sea, he said the reccivers
had produced unexpected addi-
tional information by picking up
steelhead returning to the ocean

‘after spaWning. ~

That provided information on
post-spawning survival rates and
the rate of migration back to the
sea, ‘‘a bonus’’,

Radio ttacking is an expensive
proposition, Beere admits, with
transmiltlers costing $260 apiece
and the receivers $13,000.

But for much of the year
Skeena tributary waters are too
cloudy . for’ a snorkel survey.
When they do clear up, spawning
level. water levels have usually.
dropped too much.
