Book Description
Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and coho salmon (O. kisutch) annual escapements to the Little Susitna River were assessed from 2012 to 2016 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. Not all counts were complete for each run. Complete weir counts for Chinook salmon from 2014 through 2016 ranged between 3,135 and 5,026 fish. For 2013-2016, age composition for Chinook salmon averaged 38.1% age-1.2 fish, 37.1% age-1.3 fish, and 13.6% age-1.4 fish. On average, females composed 35.5% of the runs. The midpoint of the Chinook salmon runs with complete counts varied between years from 11 to 23 June. Chinook salmon escapement goals were met for the years 2013-2016. The 2012, 2014, and 2016 mean annual coho salmon weir count was 13,680 fish. An above-average coho salmon run was observed in 2014, 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 5 years. The midpoint of the coho salmon runs varied between years with complete counts from 10 to 21 August.

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).

Book Description
Declining run sizes, coupled with state and federal restrictions and closures to the Unalakleet River Chinook salmon fisheries, have highlighted the need to obtain more complete estimates of the magnitude and age, sex, and length (ASL) composition of the spawning escapement.

Book Description
Declining run sizes and ensuing state and federal restrictions and closures to Unalakleet River Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha fisheries highlighted the need to obtain more complete estimates of spawning escapement. In response, multiple agencies and entities began the Unalakleet River weir in 2010 funded by United States Fish and Wildlife Service's Office of Subsistence Management. The goal was to obtain estimates of the mainstem Chinook salmon escapement and age, sex, and length (ASL) composition. An estimated 505 Chinook salmon were enumerated during the 2016 season. High water and numerous pink salmon O. gorbuscha contributed to an incomplete count of Chinook salmon in 2016, therefore the escapement estimate should be considered a minimum count and run timing could not be determined. A total of 25 ASL samples were collected but did not meet minimum sample size requirements and could not be used to estimate female percentage or age composition. Despite issues with operations in 2016, the Unalakleet River weir is an important tool for fishery managers and increased oversight and training will ensure it remains a viable option for monitoring Chinook salmon in the Unalakleet River.
