The Malksope River system, situated immediately south
of Brooks Peninsula on Vancouver Island, British
Columbia drains into Malksope Inlet and Checkleset
Bay (Figure 1). The watershed comprises a total stream
length of approximately 45.2 km and approximately 31
km of the wetted stream length is categorized as first
order watercourse. Steep gradients prevent fish from utilizing the majority of stream habitat within these
reaches. The mainstem extends only 9.7 km, and of this,
5.6 km are accessible to anadromous fish species that
include chinook, coho, sockeye, and chum salmon, and
steelhead and cutthroat trout. Pink salmon had not been
documented in this system for 27 years but were observed
in snorkel surveys in 1996.
