2003 KOKANEE STREAM SPAWNER ENUMERATION

OKANAGAN DRAINAGE

by

Jason Webster

INTRODUCTION Enumeration and biological sampling of the Okanagan Valley’s stream spawning kokanee (Oncorhynchus nerka) populations are a continuation of the long-term monitoring of the lake’s salmon populations. Routine monitoring of kokanee escapement has occurred annually since 1974. This data series assists in meeting the objective of restoring Okanagan Lake kokanee stocks under the Okanagan Lake Action Plan (OLAP). This plan was established in 1996 in response to a dramatic decline in the kokanee spawners in Okanagan Lake observed in the late 1980s and early 1990s (Ashley and Shepherd 1996). Also, the current monitoring of stream spawning kokanee populations in Skaha, Wood and Kalamalka Lakes will ensure that any negative population trend will be acted upon immediately. Enumeration of kokanee is based on visual counts and their accuracy is subject to variables such as weather, water clarity and run timing. In spite of this limitation, the long-term data set provides a valuable index of population trends over time. This report summarizes escapement data and carcass samples collected for the year 2003, and incorporates them within the long-term data set.

METHODS Counting In 2003, twenty-one streams within the Okanagan Lake watershed were enumerated. From the top of the watershed, downstream, they include the following: Middle Vernon Duck Lake to Wood Lake Winfield Water source to mouth Coldstream Coldstream Ranch to mouth Vernon Kalamalka Lake to Okanagan Lake Six Mile Accessible length for kokanee Nashwhito Accessible length for kokanee Whiteman Accessible length for kokanee Shorts Accessible length (falls to mouth) for kokanee Lambly Accessible length (falls to mouth) for kokanee Kelowna (Mill) City Works Yard to mouth Mission East Kelowna Road to mouth Smith Accessible length for kokanee Powers Accessible length (falls to mouth) for kokanee Trepanier Accessible length for kokanee Peachland Hardy Falls to mouth Trout Accessible length for kokanee Eneas Accessible length for kokanee Prairie Valley Accessible length for kokanee Naramata Accessible length for kokanee Penticton Eckhart Road Bridge to mouth Okanagan River Channel Okanagan Lake to Skaha Lake

Specifications for the number and dates of the counting days in the 2003 enumeration differed only slightly from those in 2000 (Webster, J. 2000). The count dates covered the same peak period and were conducted every three days in most cases, the exception being Mission Creek, where counts were performed every second day. Total number of kokanee utilizing a stream was derived by multiplying the peak count by an expansion factor of 1.5 to reflect spawner residence period and subsequent spawner replacement through the entire spawning period (Andrusak and Sebastian, in Ashley et. al. 1999). Enumerations in all streams, with the exception of the Okanagan River, were performed by ground counts. The Okanagan River was enumerated by a boat, travelling in the middle of the river channel. Polaroid sunglasses and brimmed hats were worn on all counts to increase visibility and to decrease the glare effect off the water surface. Keeping the sun at the counter’s back whenever possible proved to be most effective. Because fish tend to move upstream when spooked, counting while moving downstream also proved to work well. When possible, counters walked along the stream banks and looked from a higher vantage point, down onto the water surface. Although staying out of the creek bed may have prevented the disturbance of reds, it sometimes could not be avoided. In these situations, foot placement was deliberate. Hand counters (tally whackers) were used to count live and dead kokanee, and chest waders or thigh waders were worn in all the streams. Water temperature was taken at or near the mouth of streams on all counts of 2003. Since a routine was followed during each count, the time of day when taking the temperature was consistent. An accurate, aquarium-styled thermometer was used. Counting methodology varied according to spawner densities. On most occasions, kokanee enumerated this year were counted individually. During some of the counts performed on Coldstream, Middle Vernon, Peachland and Mission Creeks, kokanee were counted ten at a time. Kokanee were counted by hundreds or more during most of the enumerations on the Okanagan River due to the extremely high fish densities in 2003. Sampling A target number of 100 kokanee was to be sampled from each of Mission, Peachland, Powers and Penticton Creeks along with the Okanagan River Channel. All fish were collected by hand or with a dip net and had to be in good physical condition. As many carcasses as possible was taken as dead pitch, or “near dead”. Because of low numbers of kokanee in recent years, live capturing kokanee to meet target sample numbers was not considered an option. Once collected, all samples were placed on a portable measuring board where fork length was measured. Kokanee were sexed by identification of external features and by internal examination. Maturity was recorded as spent for both males and females. The only exceptions were if a significant number of eggs (in relation to the size of the female) were counted or if the fish were live captured. In both of these cases, maturity was noted as ripe. In the case of all female samples collected from Mission Creek, Powers Creek, Penticton Creek and the Okanagan River, any retained eggs were counted individually

after an incision of the body wall. Any special comments on individual fish were also recorded if necessary. Note: A target sample of fifty in-skein females was to be collected from the Mission Creek Spawning Channel in 2003. The methodology and results regarding the in-skein females can be viewed in Webster, 2003. A total of 250 otoliths were to be collected from Mission Creek, Peachland Creek, Penticton Creek, Powers Creek and the Okanagan River (50 each). An incision was made through the top of the head, bisecting it as accurately as possible. An otolith was then removed from the lower portion of the brain cavity with a pair of tweezers, cleaned with water and placed in a scale sample envelope. The envelope was coded and labelled with length, sex of the fish and location and date collected. In most cases only one of the otoliths was collected. Along with otoliths, DNA portions were to be collected from as many of the samples as possible. A small 2cm by 1cm portion of flesh/fin was cut from the caudal/peduncle area of each kokanee sample and placed in a container of preservative. The containers were labelled by creek name and only samples from that specific creek were placed inside. Enumeration Adjustments For Mission Creek, the escapement estimate has been modified to include the entire accessible length of stream. As indicated in the Methods Section of this report, Mission Creek ground counts only extend upstream to the East Kelowna Rd Bridge due to access limitations and time requirements. Historically, ground counts have typically extended no further upstream than the Mission Creek Spawning Channel intake. In order to estimate the number of kokanee utilizing the non-enumerated section of stream, helicopter surveys have been conducted periodically over the years (most recently in 2000). The helicopter estimate is then applied to the ground count estimate for the section of stream downstream of the spawning channel intake (the historical upstream limit for enumerations) to derive a representative proportion of kokanee that spawn in the upstream section. This proportion is then used to calculate the number of fish spawning in the upstream section of creek for those years when aerial or ground surveys are not possible. The helicopter survey indicated that 0.3125 (or 31.25%) of the total fish counted in the downstream section is representative of fish use in the upstream section of Mission Creek. All 2003 information on Six Mile, Nashwito and Whiteman Creeks is provided by the Okanagan Nation Alliance and is not part of this contract. Data from these three creeks, however, will be used in calculating the total number of Okanagan Lake creek spawners in the Results and Discussion section of this report. Poor viewing/counting conditions due to higher water levels and/or suspended sediments occurred on Trout Creek (Sept. 20 and Oct. 2) and Mill (Kelowna) Creek (Sept. 30 and Oct. 7). Upon those dates it is possible that a larger number of kokanee (up to 50% more) may have been present than were actually counted.

The 2003 reach by reach enumeration forms within appendix I of this report are creations of the contractor and may differ slightly from the standard enumeration forms designed by the Ministry of Water, Land and Air Protection (MWLAP). Some of the contractor-designed 2003 forms have been changed in order to give a more detailed breakdown of the enumeration data. However, all of the reach-by-reach enumeration results entered into the MWLAP database conform to MWLAP standards. The following points should be noted: • Numbers entered in the Penticton MWLAP database under Vernon Creek’s reach E

include any kokanee counted between 43rd Street and Kalamalka Lake. • Numbers entered in the Penticton MWLAP database under Middle Vernon Creek’s

reach C include any kokanee counted between Lodge road and Duck Lake. • Numbers entered in the Penticton MWLAP database under Mission Creek’s reach E

do not include kokanee counted within the Mission Creek Spawning Channel’s settling pond. The number of kokanee within the settling pond is included in reach G’s total.

Sampling Adjustments Due to the problem of meeting target sample numbers in past years, carcass sampling was instigated as soon as any dead fish were noticed, not as the peak die off started (as described in the contract).

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Enumeration Results The estimated total of kokanee creek-spawners for Okanagan Lake in 2003 is 23,725 (table 1). This is drawn from a total of 17 enumerated creeks. The estimated number for each creek is calculated by multiplying the peak count of live fish by a conversion factor of 1.5 (Andrusak and Sebastian, in Ashley et. al. 1999). When using the eight primary streams only to calculate the Okanagan Lake stream escapements, the 2003 escapement estimate total is the fourth lowest total since enumeration data was first recorded in 1971. Only escapement estimates from 1997 to 1999 are lower (figure 1). To further compare, the estimated escapement for the spawners in all the streams in 2002 was 44,488 and in 2001 it was 67,077. Only Penticton, Nashwhito and Whiteman Creeks showed higher returns this year than in 2002. Drawn from counts on the Okanagan River Channel, the estimated run of 2003 creek-spawners in Skaha Lake is 68,985 (table 2). Although almost 28,000 less than last year’s total of 96,480, the 2003 run is still exceptionally high when comparing it to estimated escapements from 1984 to 2002 (figure 2). The 2003 escapement is the second highest on record since 1984, and may have even surpassed runs from the early seventies, when up to 3 million eggs were collected from the Okanagan River Channel for local hatcheries (Steve Matthews, per. comm.). Stream spawners in Kalamalka Lake’s only major tributary, Coldstream Creek, produced an estimated total of 18,703 (table 3), up considerably from the previous year.

Figure 3 indicates a slight downward trend overall in Coldstream Creek kokanee escapements since 1988.

Winfield and Middle Vernon Creek numbers constitute total creek spawners for Wood Lake (table 4). A total estimated run of 8,921 spawners was calculated for 2003, up more than 2,500 fish from last year’s estimated run of 6,368 but still less than half of the 1999 run of 19,845. Figure 4 demonstrates the rise-and-fall trend of kokanee escapements in Middle Vernon Creek since 1983.

It should be noted that all carcass sampling performed should be considered as non-random sampling, due to the fact that only carcasses deemed to be in good shape were collected. However, with the exception of Penticton Creek, all of the tributary’s carcass samples are reasonably representative of the actual size distribution. Mean lengths within the four Okanagan Lake streams varied considerably in both the males and females (table 6) (Figures 6 to 10) (Appendix II). Females in Mission Creek averaged over 361 mm, nearly 78mm longer than the average female length in Powers Creek (284 mm). Mission Creek was also the only creek where the mean length of the females was greater than the mean length of the males. Males in Peachland Creek (377 mm) were 41 mm longer on the average than the males in Powers Creek (315mm). The2003 mean lengths are also considerably longer than most mean lengths recorded in years previous to 1997 (Figure 5). The average fish size for each creek appears to be higher mainly due to the large number of assumed 4+ and 5+ year-old fish that were present in the samples. Because results of otolith aging are not available at the time of writing this report, we will assume that the majority of 3+ year-old kokanee do not exceed 310mm in length. Using this standard in Peachland Creek, for example, 71% of the population was at least 4+ year-old fish (Figure 10). In Powers Creek a more typical representation of 33% (based on stream-sample data collected since 1989) of the samples were at least 4+ year-old fish (Figure 9, Appendix II). Finally, regarding the above average stream kokanee lengths in 2003, it is important to note that there were three sampled specimens over 600 mm in length. This total matches the total number of sampled specimens over 600 mm from all stream-sample data collected from1989 to 2002.

Note: figure 5 may differ from similar figure in OLAP report due to combining data from both Mission Creek and Mission Creek Channel and errors discovered in the 1993 Penticton Creek data. Due to the fact that most of the accessible spawning portion of Penticton Creek is a concrete flume, the majority of carcasses were collected from the section of the creek close to the mouth, where flows slowed considerably. It was noted that the larger/older

carcasses tended to get caught up in the rocks more easily than the younger/smaller ones at this location. In the case of this creek, the mean lengths of both male and female samples are certainly larger than the actual mean. Samples collected from the Okanagan River Channel in 2003 indicate a much smaller mean length than in the Okanagan Lake streams. Only 4 of the 100 samples collected from the Okanagan River Channel were greater than 300 mm (table 5). Egg retention was lowest in Mission Creek (2%) and highest in Penticton Creek (15%) (Table 6). In Penticton Creek, there are many carcasses collected that were killed by predators or by high water temperatures: early death from predators leads to incomplete egg deposition by females; high water temperatures also lead to early death due to stress. Fecundity and egg deposition estimates calculated in Tables 6 show a total stream spawner egg deposition, from four of the seventeen creeks enumerated in Okanagan Lake, of 11,652,167. By comparison, with reference to Skaha Lake, an estimated 12,384,262 eggs were deposited in the Okanagan River Channel alone in 2003, showing even further, how immense the Channel’s run was in 2003 (Table 5). It is important to note is that even though Okanagan Lake’s estimated stream spawner escapement was 43,000 less than Skaha Lake’s estimated escapement; the egg deposition was similar in number. This shows how important the size of females is, when calculating fecundity.

Flow Observations Creek water levels were a major issue in 2003. A barely adequate amount of water was available for kokanee migration in many of the enumerated streams. Flows in Trout Creek were exceptionally low in 2003. During the initial count on September 20, stream flows were so low that migration was not possible upstream of the Highway Bridge. In fact, only smaller kokanee (approximately less than 300 mm) were able to migrate beyond 100 meters of the confluence with Okanagan Lake. Approximately 15 larger-sized (unspent) kokanee carcasses were viewed near the mouth of the creek on September 20. It is likely these carcasses were easy targets for predators in the low water conditions. Flows in Middle Vernon Creek in 2003 were also exceptionally low. A feeder creek that originates from the hills, west of Winfield supplied all of the water during the entire spawning season. The feeder creek enters Middle Vernon Creek approximately 20 meters downstream of the Beaver Lake Road crossing. No water was available from Duck Lake in 2003. During all of the enumeration dates, hundreds of fresh, unspent kokanee carcasses were observed within the creek. In one particular location, at the upstream end of the Winfield Golf Course, up to 2000 live kokanee and 700 unspent kokanee carcasses were seen crammed into two small pools because immediately upstream, the flows were too low to allow migration through a steeper, rockier section of the creek. Many of the carcasses were predator casualties but most appeared to have died due to oxygen deprivation. No kokanee were viewed during the two counts performed on Naramata Creek in 2003. Although a small amount of water was present in the creek during the two count dates, it is likely that flows were too low to allow any upstream migration. As it was in 2002, flows in Shorts Creek did not allow any migration upstream in 2003. The creek bed went dry approximately 200 meters upstream of the mouth. Flows continued underground, until the confluence with Okanagan Lake. Construction and Silt Sources Construction was viewed around some of the enumerated streams in 2003 but no damage to the streams was noted. A high sediment load was observed within the water of Trout Creek during the 2003 enumeration dates. The source of the sediment loading in Trout Creek is believed to be a perpetually eroding bank in the canyon section of the creek. Fish Presence in Enhanced Sections • The gravel within the Mission Creek Spawning Channel appeared to be in excellent

condition. Approximately thirty percent of the Mission Creek peak run used the spawning channel in 2003 (appendix I).

• Very few kokanee (up to 200 during the peak count – 2.0% of run) were observed

using the enhanced section in Coldstream Creek. Although the weirs and gravel within the enhanced section appear to be in good shape, the kokanee are simply using the large amount of quality spawning habitat downstream instead.

• As the kokanee distribution in Powers Creek shows (appendix I), about 32% of the

kokanee enumerated were found using the enhancement platforms (weirs) and fish ladder pool during the peak count.

• 25% of the kokanee enumerated during the peak in Penticton Creek were viewed in the fish ladders or large weirs.

• Active spawning within the newly installed weirs (2001 and 2002) in Kelowna Creek

was very noticeable. Although, there was no formal tally of kokanee using the enhanced sections, it is estimated that 75% of the fish enumerated in 2003 were viewed on or near the enhanced areas.

• The two Newberry Riffles (NR) located within Mission Creek each had spawning

activity associated with them. Although there was no formal kokanee count performed in the area of the Newberry Riffles, the number of spawners in the area of the riffles seemed only slightly greater than in pre NR years.

Other Notes • Predators like mergansers, blue herons, and loons were seen in moderate numbers

during the 2003 enumeration. Egg-eating ducks were very apparent in 2003.

RECOMMENDATIONS Methods The following corrections should be made on the MWLAP Kokanee Enumeration Sheets to avoid possible confusion by contractors in future enumerations:

• Vernon Creek – A reach ‘F’ should be added or Reach ‘E’ should be extended in order to include the section between Polson Park and Kalamalka Lake.

• Middle Vernon Creek - A reach ‘D’ should be added or reach ‘C’ should be

extended in order to include the section between Beaver Lake Road and Duck Lake. A reach ‘E’ could also be added in order to include the portion of stream accessible to kokanee in Upper Vernon Creek (see following paragraph).

A decision should be made on whether or not to include kokanee spawners observed in Upper Vernon Creek (empties into Duck Lake) as part of the Middle Vernon Creek returns. Although there were no kokanee in Upper Vernon Creek in 2003, experiments performed with dams that halt any upstream migration by kokanee on Middle Vernon Creek during the spawning season show that the kokanee seen in Upper Vernon Creek, are indeed, Wood Lake kokanee. Adding another reach to the Enumeration Form (Appendix I) to include the section between Duck Lake and the Hiram Walker Flume is a solution.

The Powers Creek enumeration breakdown asks for kokanee numbers within individual weirs (i.e. upper, middle, lower weir). These separate weirs are not easily definable when walking the creek and the creek has more than just three weirs. The descriptive breakdown of these enhanced areas should be reviewed in order to avoid inconsistent interpretations by contractors. Smith Creek (immediately north of Powers Creek) should be added to the list of creeks that are enumerated twice during the contract. Alternatively, it could replace Prairie Valley Creek, for example, which has produced zero fish the last four years. Habitat In Powers Creek, a large beaver dam is located approximately 500 meters upstream of the fish ladder. The dam, which was constructed in 2001, is inhibiting migration beyond it. An additional 500 meters of non-accessible spawning habitat exists upstream of the dam. Adult kokanee have been seen using the habitat upstream of this barrier previous to the 2001-spawning season. If possible, the beaver dam should be removed to allow traditional use of the spawning habitat upstream. 2003 was the fourth consecutive year that kokanee spawners were observed in an irrigation ditch that runs parallel to Mission Creek for approximately 3.5 kilometers. The water in this irrigation ditch is diverted from Mission Creek approximately 100 meters upstream of the spawning channel intake and empties back into the main creek immediately downstream of the K.L.O. Road crossing. In 2003, at least 30 kokanee were seen spawning in this ditch which is intentionally emptied in December on a yearly basis. Considering the value of every individual kokanee during these recovering years, it is recommended that the ditch be made impassable for kokanee at the downstream confluence with Mission Creek. A vertical drop of one meter or greater where the ditch spills back into the creek could be achieved, for example, by extending a pipe out over the main creek. Preferred kokanee habitat can be assessed for streams within the reach-by-reach breakdown (shown on the forms in appendix I). Despite its long length, Coldstream Creek has only two separate reaches recorded in the MWLAP enumeration form. For future interest in preferred habitat for kokanee spawners in Coldstream Creek a more detailed reach-by-reach breakdown of this creek is suggested. Such a breakdown would be as follows: A – Mouth to Postill Road, B – Postill Road, to McClounie Road, C – McClounie Road to Enhanced Section, D – Enhanced Section, E – Enhanced Section to Coldstream Creek Road, F – Coldstream Creek Road to Howe Road, G – Howe Road to Coldstream Ranch Dam.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to give special thanks to Jerry Mitchell for his substantial involvement in this contract.
