Book Description
In 2014, the Anchor River Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) escapement was fully enumerated with combined daily counts from the north and south forks of the Anchor River using weirs fitted with underwater video systems. The 2014 escapement (2,499) fell below the sustainable escapement goal (SEG) range of 3,800-10,000 Chinook salmon. It was the lowest escapement observed since Chinook salmon were first fully enumerated on the Anchor River in 2003. A series of emergency orders were issued in 2014 that restricted the inriver and nearby marine sport fisheries. The midpoint of the combined north and south fork Chinook salmon runs occurred on 15 June. No correlation was detected between daily Chinook salmon counts on the south fork and average river stage or average river temperature. Age composition was estimated from samples collected during weekly beach seining in the mainstem, downstream of the weirs. The dominant age class was ocean age 3 (40.4%; SE 3.0%). No significant differences were detected between mean lengths of ocean-age-3 males and females or between ocean-age-4 males and females. There were no significant differences between the proportion Chinook salmon ≤508 mm total length collected from beach seine samples and video weir observations. The escapement and age composition data will be used in a spawner-recruit analysis to derive appropriate escapement goals.

Book Description
The 2015 Anchor River Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) escapement (10,241) exceeded the sustainable escapement goal (SEG) range of 3,800–10,000 Chinook salmon. Escapement was more than twice the average of recent low-productivity years (2009–2014) and was more similar to the large escapements from 2003 to 2005. Some preseason emergency orders that restricted the inriver and nearby marine sport fisheries were rescinded as a result of the unexpectedly strong run. Escapement was based on combined counts collected on the north and south forks of the Anchor River using weirs fitted with an underwater video system in the passage chute. The midpoint of the combined Chinook salmon run was 15 June. Daily Chinook salmon counts on the south fork and average south fork river stage were significantly correlated. Age composition was determined from samples collected during weekly beach seining downstream of the weirs. The dominant age class was ocean age 3 (44.6% SE 2.6%). No significant difference was detected between the length of ocean-age-3 males and females, but there was a significant difference in the average length of the sexes for ocean-age-2 and ocean-age-4 fish. There was no significant difference between the sex composition collected from beach seine samples and that observed at the video weirs, but there was a significant difference in the proportion of jacks captured in the beach seine and that observed at the video weirs.

Book Description
The 2011 Anchor River Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) escapement was censused using dual-frequency identification sonar (DIDSON) during high spring flows and by a resistance board weir when flows subsided. The Chinook salmon escapement, an estimated 3,545 fish, fell below the sustainable escapement goal (SEG) range of 3,800?10,000 Chinook salmon and was the second lowest on record. The midpoint of the Chinook salmon run was 16 June. The Chinook salmon daily escapement counts were positively correlated (r = 0.41, df = 43, P = 0.0052) with average daily river stage. The dominant age class was ocean age 3 (41.1%, SE 2.9%). Overall mean length of males (648 mm, SE 7.5 mm) was smaller than that of females (751 mm, SE 8.4 mm).

Book Description
The 2012 Anchor River Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) escapement was estimated using a dual-frequency identification sonar (DIDSON) during high spring flows, and a resistance board weir fitted with an underwater video once flows subsided. Chinook salmon escapement (4,509 fish; SE 100) fell within the sustainable escapement goal (SEG) range of 3,800?10,000. The midpoint of the Chinook salmon run was 13 June. The daily Chinook salmon escapement counts were positively correlated with daily average river stage, but not with daily average river temperature. The Chinook salmon dominant age class was ocean age 3 (50.4%; SE 4.0%). Overall mean length of males (603 mm; SE 15.4) was smaller than that of females (755 mm; SE 7.4). The inriver sport fishery was restricted by a series of emergency orders, which resulted in the lowest estimated harvest (38 fish) on record.

The 2010 Anchor River Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) escapement was estimated using dual-frequency identification sonar (DIDSON) during high spring flows and then censused using a resistance board weir when flows subsided. The Chinook salmon escapement, an estimated 4,449 fish (SE 103) fell below the lower bound of the sustainable escapement goal (SEG) of 5,000 fish and was the second lowest on record. The midpoint of the Chinook salmon run was 10 June. The Chinook salmon daily escapement counts were positively correlated (r = 0.56, df = 45, P

Book Description
Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and coho salmon (O. kisutch) annual escapements to the Deshka River were assessed from 2005 to 2014 to provide escapement counts and stock-specific biological information. Both Chinook and coho salmon were counted at a weir operated from approximately late May through mid-September each year, except for 2006 when coho salmon were counted through 16 August. The mean annual Chinook salmon weir count was 19,366 fish. Age composition for Chinook salmon averaged 30.8% age-1.2 fish, 50.4 % age-1.3 fish, and 16.7% age-1.4 fish. On average, females composed 48.3% of the runs. Chinook salmon run timing was consistent until 2013 and then quite variable in the last 2 years. On average, 50% (SE 8.1%) of the fish passed upstream of the weir by 20 June. Chinook salmon escapement goals were met for the years 2005-2007 and 2010-2014. The 2005-2014 mean annual coho salmon weir count was 18,684 fish. Above average coho salmon runs were observed in 2005 and 2006, whereas 2012 was the lowest count recorded since the weir was first operated in 1995. High water and a flood precluded complete coho salmon weir counts 2 of the 10 years. Coho salmon run timing was inconsistent (SD = 8 days at mean 50th percentile).
