Status of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in the Tabusintac River in 1998 and summary of the 1996 stock assessment / S.G. Douglas … [et al.]. : Fs70-1/1999-50E-PDF

Stock assessments of the spawning run on the Tabusintac River provided the basis for management of the salmon harvest in 1994, and 1995 with the objective of ensuring that an adequate spawning escapement occurred on a sustainable basis. There was no assessment of the resource in 1995 or 1997. The 1996 stock assessment was completed but not tabled for peer review or considered in the management of the resource in 1997. In 1998, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans provided funding to the Esgenoôpetitj First Nation, under the Aboriginal Fisheries Strategy (AFS), to resume annual salmon assessments on the Tabusintac River. As was the case in 1993, 1994 and 1996, a mark-recapture experiment was the basis for the assessment. Tags (marks) were applied at First Nation research trapnets in the estuary and recovered either from an upstream trapnet or from the angling fisheries on public and leased waters. This document details the 1998 mark-recapture experiment and updates the time series of stock assessments to include the 1996 spawning season.
