Abstract:
As part of a large-scale radiotelemetry study of Columbia River adult salmon and steelhead (Oncorhynchus spp.), we investigated permanent inter-basin straying by several important known-origin stocks. From 2000 to 2003 we radio-tagged 1,588 spring–summer Chinook salmon, 166 fall Chinook salmon, and 1,414 steelhead at Bonneville Dam that had been PIT-tagged as juveniles in tributaries, at hatcheries or at Snake or Columbia River dams. The largest samples were from the Snake River basin, including about 49% of spring–summer Chinook salmon, 73% of fall Chinook salmon, and 64% of steelhead. Between 16 and 33% of the samples were from the Columbia River basin upstream from Priest Rapids Dam, and 14% of the spring–summer Chinook were from the Yakima River.
