Status of the Rocky and Little Rivers stocks of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) of the Newfoundland Region in 1999 / C.E. Bourgeois, J. Murray and V. Mercer. : Fs70-1/2000-030E-PDF

The status of Atlantic salmon in two systems, namely Rocky River and Little River are assessed. The 1999 escapement to Rocky River was 404 (327 small and 77 large) salmon which was 166% and 104% of the 1987-91 and 1992-1998 means, respectively. The 1999 escapement to Little River was 356 (307 small and 49 large) salmon which was 375% and 118% of the 1987-91 and 1992-1998 means respectively. Egg deposition for each watershed was 39% for Rocky River, and 38% (preliminary due to fry stocking) for Little River of the required conservation egg deposition. The 1999 Rocky River smolt count of 8,625 is below the 1990-98 mean of 9,825 with sea survival to 1SW salmon being 1.79%, the lowest in the nine year series. The 1999 Little River smolt count of 1,177 is below the 19923-98 mean of 2,030.
