In August 1980 the Fish and Wildlife Branch and Northwood Pulp and Timber Ltd jointly participated in a fisheries inventory of 11 streams within the Morrison Lake-Hatchery Arm region of Babine Lake. It was found that 8 of the 9 small streams surveyed provided good to excellent rearing habitat for either coho salmon and or rainbow trout. One of the streams was being utilized by spawning sockeye salmon. The two larger streams, Morrison River and Tahlo Creek provided excellent spawning habitat for sockeyes, cohos, pinks and rainbows. Additionally they offered good sport fishing for rainbow trout. The Morrison Lake system is unique to the Babine Lake watershed because of its remoteness, lack of easy road access and because it is still relatively undeveloped. For the planned development it is hoped that stringent guidelines will be followed in order to preserve and protect the integrity of the presently high fishery values of the study area.
