Ward Lake Thurston county kokanee. WDFW Test fishery ongoing until Oct 31. Needed for sampling Kokanee heads, scales, and measurement.

Kokanee Research
Questions:
1. Do barged fish experience greater survival/higher return to the creel than fish released from boat launch?
2. Do fall plants return to the creel at a higher rate than spring plants?


What we need:
1. Clip Status: adipose fin clip vs. non fin clipped
2. Fork length in millimeters (tip of nose to fork of tail
3. Head: Cut Behind gill plate
4. Scales: 3 from each side (3 rows above lateral line, between dorsal and adipose fin)
5. A fish ID for all samples (i.e. T1, T2,T3 etc.)

I have a picture on a WORD doc but it won't post.


Call James P Losee and he will come and collect the specimens at the lake.

Thanks for the help!
