Steelhead angling on the Queen Charlotte Islands is a popular recreation for resident and nonresident anglers from December to May. This report describes a steelhead tagging project carried out on Pallant Creek during the winter of 1989-90. Similar studies were conducted during the winters of 1981-82, 1983-84 and each successive winter thereafter (deLeeuw 1984; deleeuw 1985a, 1985b, 1985c; deleeuw 1989a, 1989b, 1989c. This ongoing project is aimed at documenting long term steelhead population changes and establishing Pallant Creek as a steelhead index stream for the Queen Charlotte Islands. Continued commitment by the British Columbia Steelhead Society (Queen Charlotte Island Chapter) and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, (Pallant Creek Hatchery staff) to this project, combined with the small size and accessibility of the stream, make Pallant Creek a favourable location for this type of long term study. As in previous years, the objectives of the 1989-90 Pallant Creek steelhead tagging study were to: 1. describe steelhead run timing and movement; 2. describe life history characteristics; and 3. estimate population size. A description of the study area can be found in previous reports on this project (de Leeuw 1985a, 1985b, 1985c).
