In 1994, a catch-and-escapement monitoring program was initiated to provide information on the status of coho salmon and steelhead stocks from the Skeena River. About 30 fishery observers were interspersed throughout the gill-net and seine fishing fleets during 1994 to monitor fishing effort, determine catch composition, and conduct biological sampling. This report describes the methods used to compile the observer records and estimate catches, and provides preliminary estimates of steelhead catches.
