Description    


The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) has a statewide program that measures the status of anadromous salmonids, and provides information necessary to evaluate salmon recovery actions. In this program, WDFW makes scientific abundance estimates for adults (fish in) and juvenile migrants (fish out). These data allow WDFW scientists to segregate the effects of freshwater processes from marine processes in their effects on population dynamics. WDFW has prioritized measurement of Fish In / Fish Out data from at least one population from each Major Population Group within each Evolutionary Significant Unit within
each salmon and steelhead species listed under the U.S. Endangered Species Act. The Fish In / Fish Out contract provided to WDFW by the Salmon Recovery Funding Board supported that effort in 2021, and more specifically provided estimates of: (a) abundance of juvenile migrant summer chum salmon in Salmon Creek (b) abundance of adult summer chum in Salmon and Snow creeks (c) abundance of juvenile migrant summer chum, fall chum, Chinook and steelhead in the Duckabush River (d) abundance of adult coho salmon in the Wind River (d) abundance of juvenile migrant coho and steelhead in the Grays River (e) abundance of juvenile migrant steelhead in the Touchet River.
