Description
- Abstract: The objectives of this report are to document fish culture practices, describe adult returns, and assess progress toward meeting LSRCP goals for Grande Ronde and Imnaha steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss). We report on juvenile steelhead rearing and release activities for the 2007 brood year (BY) released in 2008. Included are collection, spawning, and adult characteristics for the 2008 returns, returns from experimental releases, supplementation in Little Sheep Creek, and success toward achieving compensation goals. In general, the data in this report were derived from hatchery inventories and standard databases (e.g., Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission Regional Mark Information System (RMIS), ODFW mark recovery) or through standard measuring techniques. As such, specific protocols are usually not described. In cases where expansions of data or unique methodologies were used, protocols are described in more detail. Additional descriptions of protocols can be found in our work statements (Carmichael et al. 2007, Carmichael et al. 2008). Coded-wire tag (CWT) data collected from 2008 adult returns were used to evaluate smolt-to-adult survival rates in experimental rearing and release groups. In 2008, experimental treatments from which fish returned included an unclipped blank-wire tagged release, off-station direct-stream releases, and progeny from early returning (fall-collected) broodstock release strategies. In 2008, experimental fish were released at Wallowa Hatchery to continue evaluation of progeny from early returning (fall-collected) broodstock vs. production broodstock. We also continued unmarked off-station direct-stream releases into Big Sheep Creek. Analysis of specific survival studies will be completed and published in separate reports once all brood years have returned and CWT data are complete for each experiment. In addition, much of the data that we discuss in this report will be used in separate and specific evaluations of ongoing supplementation programs for steelhead in the Imnaha River basin.
Lower Snake River Compensation Plan (LSRCP)
ODFW- East Region Fish Research (ERFR)
-
- Purpose: 1. Document summer steelhead rearing and release activities at all LSRCP facilities. 2. Determine optimum rearing and release strategies that will produce maximum survival to adulthood for hatchery-produced summer steelhead smolts. 3. Document summer steelhead adult returns by stock to each LSRCP broodstock collection facility. 4. Determine if the total production of summer steelhead adults meets mitigation goals, and index annual smolt survival and adult returns to Lower Granite Dam for production groups. 5. Participate in planning activities associated with anadromous fish production and management in the Grande Ronde and Imnaha river basins, and participate in ESA permitting, consultation, and rearing activities. 6. Monitor natural spawning of summer steelhead in selected areas within the Grande Ronde basin. 7. Determine the number of summer steelhead harvested annually and angler effort in recreational fisheries on the Grande Ronde, Wallowa, and Imnaha rivers.
