Status of coho salmon stocks adjacent to the Strait of Georgia, including the lower Fraser River / Kent Simpson … [et al.].: Fs70-1/1999-133E-PDF

This is the sixth PSARC Working Paper presenting an assessment of the coho populations in the Georgia Basin and provides 1997 and 1998 data to update the last report (Simpson et al. 1997). The assessment information includes juvenile abundance data, catches by fishing sector and location, escapements, survival rates and exploitation rates. Unlike the last report, coho stocks in the Thompson and upper Fraser drainages are not discussed. 'Georgia Basin' is defined for this report as Canadian drainages emptying into the Strait of Georgia, including the Fraser system as far upstream as Hope. An accompanying paper will present data for other Fraser coho stocks (Irvine et al. 1999). Forecasts of the 1999 marine survival, abundance and distribution of southern B.C. coho have been submitted (Holtby et al. 1999).
