Collecting Event Remarks |
Water temp. = 23 C. This is another remnant pool (see MAB79-17) about 50 m long. Shortly after we arrived, we observed water to begin flowing from upstream and the pool got deeper and possibly cooler. The minnows may represent Gila, Hesperoleucus and hybrids. One had orange-salmon colored markings on fins and head. Also caught Gila orcutti (?), Hesperoleucas symmetricus or their hybrids, and Rhinichthys osculus. |
