WHY you ask? I think it is because of the near perfect water conditions, normally when we get the hot weather this time of year the water goes out of shape...not this year and there is no commercial fishery at the mouth. The run is actually below the 10 year average. See Tyee Test Fishery numbers below. Note: Skeena river is dirty but dropping and cleaning right now hopefully, with this better weather, it will be fishable by the weekend. In the meantime boats have formed the famous "Hog Line" this is where the clean water of the Kalum meets up with the dirty water of the Skeena. Chinook are in the Kitimat and Kalum Rivers! Skeena Sockeye are coming in now but NOT the big numbers that were expected. Note: NEW section added called Recommended Fly Fishing Gear.

  • Gitksan Cultural Retention in Christianized Houses And
    GITKSAN CULTURAL RETENTION IN CHRISTIANIZED HOUSES AND SPACE By GARVEY SOOSAY Integrated Studies Project submitted to Dr. Leslie Main Johnson in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts – Integrated Studies Athabasca, Alberta June, 2010 1 Abstract The Gitksan culture of the Northern British Columbia has survived in spite of religious and government assaults. Many First Nations have a pride towards their culture partly due to the early efforts of their elders who tried their best to resist assimilation. Yet in spite of assimilative methods and strategies of missionaries, the Gitksan took a proactive role in allowing the missionaries to assist them to cope with the expanding western institutions in British Columbia. Scholars such as Ronald Wright (1992)1, Thomas Berger (1992)2 and Elizabeth Furniss (1995)3 have centered their studies on the unequal relations that existed between various First Nations groups and Europeans. These interpretations serve to highlight the tragedies and the victimization of the Native/European experience, but specific studies of syncretism demonstrate that power was also shared within the colonizing process. In the Gitksan territory, the syncretism of culture and the acceptance of church ideals is demonstrated in the art and architecture within the contemporary reserve villages. Introduction The Gitksan were heavily influenced by the teachings of Methodist missionaries and that was made apparent in the transference of European building styles. The Gitksan sacrificed the traditional life in cedar longhouses, but evidence of traditional art and architectural forms still exist in all of the contemporary reserve villages. The Gitksan chose to embrace both cultures.

We want to know what you like and don’t like about the draft Angling Management Plan. We want to know how the plan should be changed to better address the issues that people in the community have raised: • Overcrowding on certain waters at certain times • Large numbers of non-guided, non-resident anglers contributing to overcrowding • Importance of non-guided, non-resident anglers to the local economy • Need for more resident opportunities to fish for steelhead The feedback that you provide us in this form, at stakeholder and public meetings, via email and through other channels, will give the information the Working Groups need to help finalize the draft Angling Management Plan and present it to the Ministry of Environment.
