Abstract: Unfished populations of coho salmon, steelhead (rainbow) and cutthroat trout, and Dolly Varden char juveniles in the Salmon River drainage near Kelsey Bay, Vancouver Island were studied from July 1975, until October 1976. Population size, growth rate, and production were estimated for study areas in selected streams. Standing crops (biomass loading) of salmonids were examined to define the natural carrying capacity of these streams, and to develop methods of population comparison and prediction. The prediction could be used to determine the effects of proposed (implemented) fish enhancement alternatives. The overall plan involves development, in conjunction with Vancouver Island Region, Fisheries and Marine Service, B.C. Hydro and perhaps logging division of M & B, a list of restoration and enhancement alternatives for increased anadromous fish production. This list, which can be acted upon in preferential order in consultation with the Federal Government, provides management direction for the eventual use of
