Redwood Creek basin 1992-1993 spawning and carcass survey: annual progress report
Haux S and Anderson DG. 1994. Redwood Creek basin 1992-1993 spawning and carcass survey: annual progress report
Annual surveys in this series provide data on aquatic resources, particularly on the decline or recovery of salmonids, to assist management decisions towards perpetuating the fisheries. Data in this report are primarily from November 1992-March 1993, with some summaries of 1990-1993, and 8 years of spawning data from a weir on Prairie Creek. The Summary notes that although long-term data are needed for accurate assessments of population trends, low numbers are found returning to the index streams. Most spawning occurs in Prairie Creek and Lost Man Creek, indicating that these are important fish habitat. Text illustrations: numbers, timing in relation to flows, fork lengths, and more. Appendices: project statement, survey conditions (weather, streamflow), summary of spawning/carcass survey data for Prairie Creek, Lost Man Creek, Bridge Creek, Tom McDonald Creek, and Redwood Creek (16 tables).
