The sockeye made their appearance in the canyon above Yale in June, and during the high waters of that month and July large numbers passed through to Quesnel and Chilko Lakes. The greater proportion of the run of sockeye in late July, and in August and September, was blockaded in the canyon by rock obstructions placed in the channel, incident to the construction of the Canadian Northern Pacific Railroad, so that few were able to pass through during that time. No humpbacks succeeded in passing t...hrough the canyon. The blasting of temporary passage-ways enabled a large proportion of the sockeye run of October and November to pass through the canyon. In August sockeye were seen drifting down- stream, between Hell's Gate and Yale; the movement was very pronounced in September, and continued until the middle of October. The streams which enter the Fraser between Hell's Gate and Agassiz were filled with sockeye from the middle of August until the end of October, while they had not been observed in those streams in previous years.
