Status of Atlantic salmon in Conne River, SFA 11, Newfoundland, 1999 / J.B. Dempson, G. Furey and M. Bloom. : Fs70-1/2000-032E-PDF
Results obtained from a fish counting fence provided the basis for the assessment of the Conne River Atlantic salmon stock in 1999. Returns to home waters (river and estuary) were 2358 salmon <63 cm in length and 241 salmon >63 cm in size. This represented a decrease of 20% for small salmon in comparison with 1998 while large salmon returns declined by 18%. Sea survival to 1SW salmon increased over the previous year but still remains low (2.80). Only 68% of the Management Target was met but 122% of the conservation spawning (egg) requirement was attained. A mark-recapture study estimated a smolt run in 1999 of 63,658, which was 37% less than the peak run in 1997 but similar to the average from 1987-1995. Information on the occurrence of escaped farmed rainbow (steelhead) trout in Conne River, and results of angling activity for escaped rainbow trout during 1999 are also provided.
