Beach seine data from near Britannia Mines and in Howe Sound, British Columbia, during 1997
Data are presented on the abundance and species composition of fish species captured during a beach seine sampling program on Howe Sound. Regular sampling was conducted at 23 sites on Howe Sound, British Columbia, at two week intervals between April and August 1997. During the program, 13,882 individuals from 18 families and 39 species offish were identified. Physical oceanographic data for each site are also presented. In addition, stomach content data are presented for a subset of the juvenile salmonids caught at Britannia Beach and Furry Creek.

This report presents the catch by species (Appendix 1) from beach seining at 23 sites on Howe Sound (Figures lA-F). UTM NAD-83 coordinates of the beach seine sites are also provided (Table 5). A description of the variable names and codes used in the report is given in Tables 1, 2, and 3. Physical oceanographic data are also included for each of the sample sites (Table 4). Data on the lengths, weights and stomach contents for a subset of the juvenile salmonids caught at Britannia Beach and Furry Creek are also summarized (Appendix 2).
