During the 1983-84 winter season, 22 steelhead were tagged on the Mamin River, Queen Charlotte Islands, of which 6 or 27% were recaptured. The abundance of steelhead was calculated using multiple sample techniques and estimated from 60 to 102 fish. These results are considered conservative and are estimated to represent approximately 12% of the total run. The majority of steelhead (62%) had spent 4 years in the stream prior to smolting. Seventy-three percent of all fish sampled had spent 3 years in the ocean. Sex ratio favoured females considerably (69%). Average fork length of fish sampled was 73.6 cm, and ranged from 55.5 to 92.0 cm. These results and the sports fishery are discussed relative to other Charlotte streams.
