During the 1981-82 winter season a steelhead tagging study was undertaken on Pallant Creek, Queen Charlotte Islands. Thirty-nine steelhead were tagged from September to May, of which only 3 were recaptured. The population was calculated using multiple capture techniques and estimated at 197, 212, and 263 fish. Sex ratio favoured females over males, 3:2. The most common age group was 3.3 (56%), followed by 2.3 and 3.2, both 17%. Repeat spawner rate was 19%. Average fork length was 73.8 cm and ranged from 53.8 to 91.4 cm. These results and the sports fishery are discussed relative to other Queen Charlotte Island streams.
