Delta area of the Sacramento-San Joaquin rivers, showing localities for down- stream recoveries of king salmon tagged at Fremont Weir. (Upper limits of gill net fishing: 1950, mile 62 and Convict Point; 1951, same; 1952, mile 81; 1953, mile 81. Lower limit for all years: mile 100.) to 98 miles below the Fremont Weir tagging area. Seventeen of the 36 fish were taken in brackish water of more than one-third the salinity of the open ocean. Thirty-five other king salmon from Fremont Weir were taken a shorter distance downstream or appeared to be on their way to spawn either in a lower tributary of the Sacramento River or in some tributary of the San Joaquin River. Although these fish moved downstream, they have not been included among those whose behavior suggests a migra- tion back to salt water. The 35 may be classified in three groups: (1) Twenty-eight retaken in the Feather River drainage or near its mouth, 2 miles downstream from Fremont Weir. (2) Three retaken in the American River or near its mouth, 21 miles downs) ream from Fremont Weir. (3) Four retaken in the Mokelumne Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original California.
