I will promptly answer your Usually, even walking in this type of snow is difficult for most anglers…but the questions. determined ones will get to the water and be rewarded with some nice “un-spooked” fish, sometimes on their “first cast”. The Skeena River is in fair shape but “stained” with a little brown colour. This river usually has a good run of spring Steelhead. I have reports of some good catches of bright spring fish.

Skeena River Steelhead and Trout can be caught at some locations. Access is easier as most of the snow has melted. Spring Steelhead are in the river now. This river can handle all fishing systems. In this report I will cover “plunking”. I am kind of an old guy so some of my stuff is old too. I use a Diawa 10.5’ Kevlar Graphite KGX 20 HC. Ambassadeur 7000. Maxima mainline 30lb test High Vis. Maxima 40lb leader. I am using larger test for the leader so the fish can not chew through it. Butch Triple swivel with 8oz flat dropper Lead Weight. Spin and Glow, size 3, 2 small plastic beads. Gamagatsu hooks size 3ott. Be sure to pinch that barb. Skeena River Graph Hydrometric Data Babine River Graph Bulkley River Graph Kispiox River Graph Kitimat River Graph Morice River Graph Nass River Graph Skeena River Graph Normal Temperatures: Max +14°C. Min 3°C. Sunrise: 6:14 AM Sunset: 8:51 PM Lakelse River Is in fair shape and fishing for Steelhead is fair. Most fish are in their spawning mode now. Tip: Float fishing a bright red corky and a little bit of white wool works well. Choice of hook would be a small Gamagatsu barbless or with barb pinched down. Spin or level wind reels filled with Power Pro braided line works well. Use the thinnest line possible. It is still very, very strong. Tip: The Salmon fry are hatching so the fly fishermen should match this by fishing minnow patterns and streamer flies. Reg: Fly fishing only between Lakelse Lake and CNR bridge, Mar 1-May 31. Kalum River Is in good shape both upper and lower end and fishing for Steelhead and Trout is fair. The water is very low and the Steelhead are “spooked”. How to: When the water is low it can be fished successfully with light spoons. Some of the best spoons are made by Gibbs. Some of the best rods are GLoomis. Shimano makes excellent spin reels. Tuf-line makes excellent braided line. Duracast line is coated and slides effortlessly through the guides and won’t wrap on the tip. Hint: Since the water is so low it is very dangerous for the jet boats so please be careful. Drift boats and rafts are in “paradise”. Higher water will change everything…did I say it should bring in the Chinook (King) Salmon? Tip: If you can, only fish the deep cut-banks where there is some rifflely flowing water. Fishing anywhere else would probably be a waste of time. Gitnadoix River This beautiful Skeena tributary usually has a very good run of spring Steelhead. This river is located in a Provincial Park. It is a very rough, rocky river in the lower end and jet boating can be dangerous. Please be careful! Regs: Class 1 water all year; Steelhead Stamp mandatory April 1-May 31. Guided fishing on this river in this park is limited, for details, advice and suggestions please contact me. Zymoetz (Copper) River The water is in good shape but very low. Fishing for Steelhead is fair. Reminder: No fishing above the sign at the transmission line crossing (below) Zymoetz Canyon Jan 1 – June 15. You can still fish below the sign all winter and spring. Fly fishing is the choice of many on this river. Wading with quality Simms waders and accessories is the way to go. A friend of mine is very happy with his new Islander fly reel. Trophy XL fly rod, Cortland Line and Maxima Tippet completes his set. Zymagotitz (Zymacord) River The water is in fair shape and access has improved with the melting snow. Fishing for Cutthroat Trout and Dolly Varden Char is good. This river has some big Bull Trout and a fair run of spring Steelhead. Tip: The best way to practice catch and release and do the least amount of harm to the fish is to use a small hook. Size 1 or size 2 Gamagatsu is a good choice.

  • Environmental Change and Economic Transformation in Northwest BC: Settler and First Nations Perspectives on Environmental Protection in the Post-Forestry Era
    Environmental Change and Economic Transformation in Northwest BC: Settler and First Nations Perspectives on Environmental Protection in the Post-Forestry Era by Jordan Dennis Tesluk M.A., Simon Fraser University, 2006 B.A., Simon Fraser University, 2003 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Sociology) The University of British Columbia (Vancouver) September, 2014 © Jordan Dennis Tesluk, 2014 Abstract This dissertation examines the way that resource-dependent communities in northwest British Columbia respond to environmental problems in the wake of industrial decline. Northwest communities face many challenges in revitalizing their economies, including significant declines in the health of their local resource base and the uncertain impacts of global climate change. Throughout most of the 20th century, the forestry-based economy dominated British Columbia, and relegated Aboriginal rights and the environmental movement to the margins of resource decision-making processes. The decline of forestry, and the weakening of historical structures have created openings for new social movements to influence resource development activities and community planning. Efforts to create a new industrial base thus unfold within a very different social and political environment than in the past era. The analytical body of this dissertation utilizes data from a study of community leaders and resource managers in three northwest towns. It is argued that environmental change represents an alpha-level risk that threatens the ability of these communities to subsist. However, responses to environmental problems are mitigated by the emergence of environmentalism and Aboriginal rights as important forces in the northwest, and by the continuing influence of relationships between northwest communities and external agencies that seek to exert control over the resource base.

  • BC's Proposed KSM Mine 'Looming Train Wreck' for Southeast by MARY CATHARINE MARTIN JUNEAU EMPIRE

Petersburg Vessel Owners Association (PVOA) appreciates the opportunity to comment on the British Columbia provincial and Canadian federal reviews of Seabridge Gold’s (KSM) mine proposal. PVOA is a diverse group of over 100 commercial fishermen and businesses operating primarily in Southeast Alaska. Our members provide millions of meals to the public annually by participating in a variety of fisheries statewide including salmon, herring, halibut, cod, crab, sablefish, shrimp, and dive fisheries. Many PVOA members are also active sport, personal use, and subsistence fishermen who depend on healthy and pollution free water to provide for healthy fisheries for the future. PVOA is generally concerned about the downstream effects on water quality and salmon habitat from acid mine drainage and other pollutants from several large mining projects proposed in the watersheds of all of the major transboundary river systems flowing out of British Columbia into Southeast Alaska. These systems are areas of very productive salmon and shellfish habitat critical to the livelihoods of Southeast Alaskans in general and to the economic wellbeing of PVOA members specifically. Our concerns arise mainly from two reports: 1) a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) report that mining has contaminated portions of the headwaters of over 40 percent of the watersheds in the western continental U.S.1 and, 2) a 2006 study showing that 76% of U.S.

Dirty Ears: Hearing And Hearings In The Canadian Liberal Settler Colony Abstract Despite vocal opposition from the indigenous people, public hearing processes in Canada play an important part in determining whether or not oil and gas pipeline development projects will be approved. Attention to hearing as an aesthetic and political practice has been theorized by the Canadian composer and sound theorist R. Murray Schafer as a fundamental part of culture and nation building. This dissertation explores the ways the Canadian government and settler society use hearing as a silencing technique, mobilizing the field of aurality to place limits on the expression of indigenous dissent. The research is based on two years of ethnographic work among activists fighting oil and gas development in Vancouver, and indigenous sovereigntists resisting pipelines in the province of British Columbia’s north. Juxtaposing case studies from different struggles over land use in British Columbia with a deconstruction of R. Murray Schafer’s writings and select compositions, this dissertation shows how the field of aurality shapes land and people.

However, for First Nations in British Columbia, these lands have been occupied since time immemorial and their riches cannot be counted tree- by-tree, fish-by-fish, or stone-by-stone . Instead, the wealth of these landscapes can only be known through the relationships between the people, the lands, and the waters . It is because of the knowledge of these relationships that First Nations in British Columbia assume a responsibility in deciding how the lands and resources in British Columbia are to be used . Unfortunately, capacity to participate as equal partners in decision-making is low among British Columbia’s more than 200 First Nations communities .
