Migration success and migration time of gastrically radio-tagged v. PIT-tagged adult Atlantic salmon

Rivinoja, P; Leonardsson, K; Lundqvist, H

Abstract

Adult Atlantic salmon (55-116 cm total length) with PIT-tags (n = 318) and both PIT-tags and gastric radio-tags (n = 127) in a regulated river showed similar upstream migration success, yet radio-tagged fish migrated faster than fish with only PIT-tags. Regurgitation rate of radiotags was 9%. (c) 2006 The Fisheries Society of the British Isles
