Abstract
  • "The Oregon Fish Commission received a contract from the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, under the Saltonstall-Kennedy Act for a study to develop methods for determining the behavior of juvenile salmonids in reservoirs. The study, consisting of a literature survey and field program, was conducted in Felton and North Fork Reservoirs on the Deschutes and Clackamas Rivers, Oregon, between September 30, 1959 and January 31, 1962. Pelton Reservoir contains chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), blueback salmon (0. nerka), and summer-run steelhead trout (Salmo airdneri); North Fork Reservoir contains chinook salmon, silver salmon (0. kisutch 1 and winter-run steelhead trout. Equipment tested included SCUBA (self-contained underwater breathing apparatus) for direct observation, gill nets for capture, and sonar for indirect observation of fish." (Abstract From Author)
