Collecting Event Remarks |
Water temp. = 22.2 C. We made about 10 seine hauls and dipnetted for 20 min. Most fish came from one backwater pool. There were a few highly colored males and lots with red chins. But there was only one obviously gravid female. No obvious cases of Schistocephalus infection. Also caught in rank order of abundance, (1) Gila orcutti, (2) Catostomus santaanae, and (3) Lampetra tridentata. |
