This grant is for assisting the Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG) in monitoring and evaluating the success of the LSRCP programs related to fish populations. Its primary purpose is to assess adult returns of Chinook salmon and steelhead from hatchery releases to facilities, spawning areas, and fisheries. Key activities include estimating adult harvest and migration timing in Columbia River fisheries, as well as quantifying hatchery and wild fish returning to Idaho. The project will analyze timing and distribution of fish for harvest management plans, coupling harvest data with hatchery returns to estimate success of LSRCP releases. It also involves managing tag data for regional information systems.

| Description: | To properly evaluate the compensation effort, adult returns to facilites, spawning areas, and fisheries that result from hatchery releases. Assist Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG) in evaluating the success of the LSRCP programs: 1. Assist in summarizing and estimating adult Chinook salmon and steelhead harvest in the main stem Columbia River fisheries and to determine migration timing through the various fisheries; 2. Assist in estimating the number of hatchery and wild/natural fish returning to the project area in Idaho. The timing and distribution of the marked hatchery and wild stocks in Idaho recreational fisheries will be analyzed to develop annual harvest management plans. Harvest data will be coupled with hatchery return data to provide an estimated of returns from LSRCP releases; and 3. Assist with excising tags from snouts, reading tags, uploading data to the Regional Mark Information System (RMIS), and maintaining the information in a manner accessible to the interested parties. |
