Book Description
This study will describe the seasonal distribution of Arctic grayling Thymallus arcticus captured in Hungry Hollow Creek of the Middle Fork Gulkana River during summer. Arctic grayling will be captured using hook-and-line gear in mid-July. One hundred adult Arctic grayling ≥320 mm FL will be surgically implanted with radio tags that will operate for ~17 months. Radiotagged Arctic grayling will be tracked throughout the year to determine overall distribution, including overwintering, spawning, and summering areas, as well as migration timing among these locations. The seasonal proportion of the tagged fish residing in Hungry Hollow Creak and the mainstem of the Gulkana River will also be estimated.
