French Creek
SRWC committed to a rigorous effort to monitor juvenile Coho Salmon in 2019. The primary objectives were to collect growth data between the different habitats via recaptures, deploy PIT (Passive Integrated Transponder) tags and utilize the PIT arrays to document movement and survival and document relative condition between the sample units. In total, 1,275 fish were tagged.
Fisheries Monitoring
Sugar Creek
Six units were sampled during the base flow period of 2019. In total, 1391 juvenile Coho Salmon were tagged within this project reach from July through December. Seine, fyke and minnow traps were used to catch the fish and a 12mm PIT (Passive Integrated Transponder) tag was inserted to track fish movement.
