Salmon Experiment eeds Time A fisheries expert hopes that experiments to establish a run of pink salmon in the Qualicum River will turn out to be the most successful ever carried out in B.C.

Bob McLaren, assistant area director for the federal fisheries department, said today he's keeping his fingers crossed for another two years. Fish transplants often fail in the second generation, he said, for reasons still unknown to fish experts. 1 The Qualicum salmon will i hr-At timr -m return to spawn in 1068. "If they t. vw r'A I 5 4 ft ri still show a substantial increase, then we can consider it a success," said McLaren.

Six million eggs from another river were transplanted two years ago and an estimated three million salmon fry went to sea. About 9,000 pink salmon returned this year to the Qualicum, about 35 miles northwest of Nanaimo on the east coast of Vancouver Island. McLaren estimates another 40,000 from the same run were caught by commercial fishermen. He gave some credit for the huge 50 per cent egg survival rate to a $1.25 million flow control project which started operating on the Qualicum in 1963. McLaren said the survival rate varies between two and 18 per cent in uncontrolled rivers where flooding or drought occurs.

"In the first brood year," he said, "this is probably the most r- nil iSv i 1 1 r.rny 1 successful transplant we've turned Vets Mark i fi?
