Status of Kokanee Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) in the Lake Sutherland Basin and Prospects for Sockeye Salmon Restoration

摘要

Adult kokanee distribution and abundance in Lake Sutherland and its tributaries, Clallam County, Washington were examined by foot, canoe, or towed divers with simultaneous SONAR survey in the lake. Virtually all kokanes spawned in the lake. Tributary streams had little spawning habitat and received few, if any spawners.
