The report summarizes a suggested management strategy for Pallant Creek, based on two conflicts which have been identified: hybridization between resident cutthroat and residualized hatchery steelhead, along with an influx of hatchery produced coho into lake tributary streams used by juvenile cutthroat. The report is 41 pages long, and contains one area map.

Audience:  Government and Public

As a consequence of past and proposed steelhead and coho enhancement efforts in an anadromously isolated lake (Mosquito Lake) within the Pallant Creek drainage on the Queen Charlotte Islands, two conflicts have been identified. Hybridization between the resident cutthroat and residualized hatchery steelhead resulting in the genetic deterioration of both stocks is a distinct possibility. The influx of hatchery-produced coho fry into lake tributary nursery streams presently utilized by juvenile cutthroat trout is also considered to impact negatively on the lakes cutthroat population. The report is 41 pages long, and contains one area map.
