We examined factors affecting fish entrainment at California\textquoterights State Water Project and Central Valley Project, two of the largest water diversions in the world. Combined, these diversions from the upper San Francisco Estuary support a large component of the municipal and agricultural infrastructure for California. However, precipitous...

Nonnative brook trout Salvelinus fontinalis are abundant in Pine Creek and its main tributary, Bogard Spring Creek, California. These creeks historically provided the most spawning and rearing habitat for endemic Eagle Lake rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss aquilarum. Three-pass electrofishing removal was conducted in 2007\^a\texteuro\textquotedbll...

Natural reproduction of adfluvial Chinook Salmon Oncorhyn-chustshawytscha has been documented in their native and introduced range but not in California, the southern end of their native range. A combination of anecdotal evidence and survey data suggests that successful spawning by Chinook Salmon reared in California reservoirs could be common. The...

Coho salmon Oncorhynchus kisutch are a threatened species in California. In the Shasta River, they may be caught in an ecological trap that is exacerbating their decline. Adults appear to have equal preferences for spawning habitat that reduces the survival of their young and that of apparently similar quality where survival would be more likely. T...

Examination of the available literature on the effects of squawfish (Ptychocheilus spp.) predation and competition on salmonid populations indicates that: (1) squawfish may prey extensively on young salmon in lakes, but there is little evidence that this predation has much impact on the number of returning adults; (2) squawfish do not appear to be ...

Two reaches of the North Fork of the Feather River in California were poisoned with rotenone to reduce nongame fish populations, one in 1977 and the other in 1981. Both reaches had been poisoned 10 years earlier as well. Standing crops, population structure, and growth rates were determined for rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri, Sacramento sucker (Cat...

The Central Valley drainage of California formerly produced immense numbers of chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha. Four seasonal runs occur in this system - fall, late-fall, winter, and spring runs. Differences in life history timing and spatial distribution enabled the four runs to use the drainage to the fullest possible extent and once made...
