Figure A. Susitna River drainage , 1984.
The Alaska Power Authority (APA) proposes construction of two
hydroelectric dams at Watana and Devil Canyons on the upper Susitna
Ri'!er (Figure A). The Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G) has
been contracted by APA to access the fisher~· resources that might be
empacted by the proposed hydroelectric project. The APA-ADF&G contract,
initiated in November 1980, is still in effect.
This is one of a series of AOF&G reports in 1985 that will be submitted
to A?A. This document only address~s the adult anadromous fish
investigations contracted for the open water period of May through
October, 1984 and it covers the following Pacific salmon species:
Pacific Salmon
Chinook Salmon
Sockeye Salmon
Pink Salmon
Chum Salmon
Coho Salmon
Oncorhynchus ~

1. 0 OBJECTIVES
This (1984) ends the fourth consecutive year of study of the Susitna
River adult anadromous fish populations by the ADF&G associated with APA
proposed hydroelectric development at Watana and Devi 1 canyons. The
emphasis of the 1984 program was quantifying Susitna River salmon
escapements and salmon spawning activity in the Susitna River main
channel and directly associated streams, sloughs and side channels.
More definitively, the objectives of the 1984 program separated by lower
and middle Susitna River reach were:
A. Lower River ((Intertidal RM 0.0 to Chulitna River confluence (RM
98.6)]
1. Define the abundance, seasonal timing and stock
characteristics of the sockeye, pink, chum and coho salmon
escapements to the Susitna River at Flathorn (RM 22) and
Sunshine (RM 80) stations and into the Yentna River (RM 28) at
Yentna Station (TRM 04). In addition evaluate the same
parameters for chinook salmon at Sunshine Station.
2. Define where, when and extent of the salmon spawning in the
sloughs, main channel, side channels and stream confluence
areas of the Susitna River between RM 28 and 98.6 .
B. Middle Riv~r ~lChulitna River confluence (RM 98.6) to upper Devil
Canyon (RM 161.0)]
1. Define the abundance, seasonal timing and stock
characteristics of the chinook, sockeye, pink , chum and coho
salmon escapements to the Susitna River at Talkeetna {RH 103)
and Curry {RH 120) stations.
2. Define where, when and extent of salmon spawning in the
Susitna River main channel, side channels and associated
streams and sloughs between RM 98.6 and 161.0. In
conjunction, determine the average resident time (observation
life) of sockeye and chum salmon as required to quantify the
total escapements of these species to the middle river reach
slough s .

2.0 METHODS
2.1 Main Channel Escapement Monitoring
In 1984 salmon esca~ements were monitored at five main channel locations
on the Susitna and Yentna rivers (Figure 1). In the lower Susitna River
reach [Intertidal (RM 0.0) to Chulitna River (RM 98.6)] a tagging site
was operated at RM 22 (Flathorn Station), a sonar site at TRM 04 (Yentna
Station) on thP. Yentna River (RM 28) and a second tagging site at RM 80
(Sunshine Station) between Montana Creek and the George Parks Highway
bridge. On the middle Susitna River reach [Chulitna River to upper
Devil Canyon (RM 161.0)] a tagging station was operated at RM 103
(Talkeetna Station) and another at RM 120 (Curry Station). With the
exception of Flathorn Station, a new tagging s i te this year, the other
four monitoring stations were at the same river mile locations in 1984
as in 1981 and 1983.
The five lower and middle river escapement monitoring stations in 1984
were operational according to the schedule in Table 1. At Flathorn (RM
22) and Sunshine (RM 80) stations four fishwheels were operated at each.
At Yentna Station (TRM 04), two side scan sonars (SSS) and two
fishwheel s were run concurrently. In the Susitna River middle reach,
four fishwheels at Talkeetna Station (RM 103) and two fishwheels at
Curry Station (RM 120) were ope rated. The specific placement sites of
the 16 fishwheels and two sonars at the five sampling stations can be
found in Appendix 1.

The two sonars operated in 1984 at Yentna Station (TRM 04) were the 1980
Model Side Scan Sonar Counters developed by the California based Bendix
Corporation. The sonar installation and operating procedures followed
were in accordance with the manufacturer's operational manual (Bendi x
Corporation, 1980). Except for occas i ona 1 , heavy debris flows
associ a ted with extreme high water the two sonar cou nters at Yentna
Station were run continuously, 24 hours per day, through the 1984 season •
. The two fishwheels, one near each so nar off the north and south Yentna
River banks were operated a minimum of 12 hours daily during the season
for apportioning the sonar counts by spec ies and for tag recovery data
from Flathorn Station sited 10 miles downstream . The sonar mo ni tori ng
and apportioning methodology followed thi s season can be found in -Barrett et al, 1984 .
The 14 fishwheels used at the four tagg i ng locations on tne Susitna
River main channel and the two operated at Yentna Station sonar site
(TRM 04) i n 1984 were of a 1981 design by ADF&G/Su Hydro staff. The
-5-
construction and operating specifications of these wheels can be found
in the Phase 1 and II AOF&G/Su Hydro Adult Anadromous reports (AOF&G,
1981 and 1982). The tagging station fishwheels were run 24 hours per
day this season except for occasional down time for maintenance, debris
problems and high catches that exceeded manpower capabilities. Each of
these fishwheels was sampled for catch four or more times daily.
All fishwheel caught salmon at Flathorn (RM 22), Sunshine (RM 80),
Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM 120) stations were tagged and released
except for fish which fell into one or more of the following categories:
1. fish that visually appeared lethargic or st~essed .
2. post-spawning condition fish.
3. fish previously tagged.
4. 90~ of the pink salmon at Flathorn and Sunshine stations, and
50~ of the pink salmon caugh ' at Talkeetna and Curry stations.
5. chinook salmon at Flathorn Station, and chinook salmon less
than 351 mm in fork length (F L) at the other three stations.
These fish were released without being tagged. However, the fish which
were reca;>tured from other tagging stations were first checked for
species identification and tag type, color and number before being
released.
In 1984 two tag types were used at the tagging stations : Petersen disc
and Fl oy FT -4 spaghetti tags. The chi nook salmon were tagged with
Petersen disc tags, and the sockeye, pink, chum and co.,o salmon were

tagged with the spaghetti tags . The exception was at Curry Station (RM
120} where Petersen disc tags were used exclusively . In addition a
number of Petersen disc tags used at Curry Station were labeled with
full size sequentia 1 numbers. These were used in marking sockeye and
chum salmon for observation life (Section 2.2.2). A percentage of the
tags used at all the stations were numbered to provide migrational
travel time. The methodology used to implant the Petersen and spaghetti
tags can be found in the Phase I , AOF&G/Su Hydro Adu 1t Anadromous
report, (AOF&G, 1981}.
At each sampling station on the Susitna and Yentna rhers in 1qe4 a
representative age, length 11nd sex composition sampl P wa!; collected
daily for each salmon species as follows:
Chinook salmon: An age, length and sex sample collected daily from
30 consecu t ively (regardless of size) caught fish. Except at
Sunshine Station where the sample was 30 consecutively caught
fish from the east and west bank fishwheels.
Sockeye salmon: An age, length and sex sample collected ~~ily from
30 consecutively (regardless of size} caught fish. Except at
Flathorn Station where the sample was 30 consecuti~ely caught
east channel fish and 30 consecutively caught west channel
fish.
-7-
Pink salmon: A 'length and sex sample collected daily from 30
consecutively {regardless of size} caught fish.
Chum salmon: An age; length and sex sample collected daily from
20 consecutively (regardless of size) caught fish.
Coho salmon: An age, length and sex sample collected daily from
20 consecutively (regardless of size) caught fish.
The procedures followed in 1984 for salmon age, length and sex
composition sampling can be found in Barrett et at, 1984.
In 19B4 at Sunshine Station (RM 80) 25 coho salmon were sampled for
fecundity. The sample was taken from the length (FL) ranges of female
coho salmon available from the east and west bank fishwheels on August
22. The collection procedures for sampling the age , length and weight,
and determining the fecundity of each female f ish sampled can be found
i n Barrett et al, 1984.
2.2 Spawn ing Ground and Tag Recovery Survey~
In 1984, the salmon spawning ground and tag recovery s urvey work was
divided by lower and middle Susitna river reach. An except i on wa s a
chinook salmon escapement index survey program conducted drainage wide
of pre-selected spawning areas which has been ongoing annually since
1976 by ADF&G, Region II, Sport Fish Division staff (ADF&G, 1981). In
1984, they performed the selected chinook salmon surveys below RM 98.6

between mid Ju ly and mid August with some assistance by AOF&G, Su Hydro
staff. The surveys upstream of RM 98.6 were performed exclusivel y by Su
Hydro staff between July 21 and August 18. The index surveys bel ow RM
98.6 were conducted by helicopter, foot, fixwing aircraft and inflatable
raft depending on access while the surveys perforr.~d abo ve RM 98.6 were
performed by helicopter and foot (Section 2.2.2).
The following subsections outline the other 1984 salmon spawning ground
and tag recovery survey work by Su Hydro Adult Anadromous staff in the
lower and middle Susitna River reaches .
2.2.1 Lower Reach
The lower reach streams listed in Table 2 were surveyed wet:kly for
salmon presP.nce by foot and occasionally by helicopter from July 21 to
October 7, 1984 . The survey reach for each stream was the one-third
mi le area from the mouth.

Surveys were also conducted by helicopter between RM 28 and 98.6 for
salmon spawning in the Susitna River main channel, side channels and
associated sloughs near weekly from August 21 to October 17. Areas
suspected of supporting salmon spawning were ground checked by foot and
boat be tween schedul2d surveys . The suspected areas were considered
s pawn i ng sites when one or more of the following criteria was noted:
, 1. Visual identifi cati on of one or more actively mating fish
pairs.
2. One or more distinct redds.
3. One or more suspected redd locations producing 1 ive eggs
through mechanical excavation with a shovel or a backpack
mounted, Homelite two cycle, single stage water pump and
attendant circular st~nding screen cod end net .
The one-third mile reach of the streams listed in Table 2, and spawning
area(s) in lower river reach sloughs, and main channel and side channel
habitats were mapped at least once in the 1984 season relative to
general habitat characteristics. Parameters recorded included upwelling
presence, surface flow and depth. Substrate descriptions were also
recorded at the streams using the follow i ng classification:
silt--very fine
sand--fines
small gravel--l /2"-1N
large gravel--1"-3"
-10-
rubble-e--3"-5"
cobble 5"-10"
bou l der-10" or larger

More precise evaluation of substrates in stream mouths were performed as
time permitted using a McNeil sampler and sieves.
Tag recovery surveys were performed by the crews also a ~ time permitted
and when visibility in the streams, sloughs and main channel allowed
accurate distinction of tagged and untagged fish. Routinely on the
streams, the crew extended their survey beyond the one-third mile reach
to a point three-quarters of a mi 1 e from the stream mouth for tag to
untagged data and determining general habitat characteristics.

In 1984 salmon spawning surveys were conducted between July 21 and
October 14 in the middle Susitna River reach. Specific chinook salmon
surveys were made between July . 21 and August 18 of a 11 known and
suspected spawning streams in the reach. Each stream was generally
surveyed twice in this period by helicopter or on foot, where feasible,
to the upper limit of fish migration.
From August 6 to October 11, sloughs and streams of known and suspected
adult salmon use above RM 98.6 were surveyed near weekly. The sloughs
were surveyed on foot over t heir entire d~stance, and the stream~ were
surveyed to standard index markers on foot. The exceptions were Indian
River (RM 138.6) and PJrtage Creek (RM 148.9) which were surveyed beyond
the index markers to the upper salmon mitigation limit. The three
streams Cheechako Creek (RM 152.4), Chinook Creek (RM 157 .0) and Devil
Creek (RM 161.0), all located in Devil Canyon, were surveyed by
helicopter to their upper spawning limit.
-11 -
Sloughs Moose (RM 123.5), A• (RM 124.6), SA (RM 125 .1) and 11 (RM 135.3)
were more intense 1 y surveyed than the other s 1 oughs above RM 98. 6
between August 16 and October 4. The surveys of these s 1 oughs were
routinely conducted at three day intervals to additionally determine the
observation 1 ife of sockeye and chum salmon. They were performed on
foot, and the observers used polarized glasses and polarized 7x35
Bushnell binoculars for identification of individually marked sockeye
and chum salmon from Curry Station (RM 120) (Section 2.1). During these
surveys the sighting date, tag number, species location in the slough,
and behavior of each tagged fish was recorded. Behavior was defined in
terms of milling and spawning (Barrett et al, 1984).
The Susitna River main channel and side channels in the middle reach
were surveyed for salmon spawning by he 1 i copter from August 27 to
October 13 near weekly. The criteria previously presented in Section
2.2.1 was used in determining whether a main channel or side channel
site was used for spawning.
In the middle Susitna River reach, tag recovery surveys were conducted
in conjunction with the routine slough and stream spawning ground
surveys with the numbers by species of live tagged and untagged fish
being recorded. These surveys along with the others addressed in this
section were performed by trained observers wearing polarized glasses
and using hand-he :d tally counters.
Egg retention sampling of sockeye and chum salmon carcasses was
conducted in most sloughs in the middle Susitna River reach concurrent
with the 1984 escapement surveys. The sample size was based on

available fish and time. The abdomen of each fish samples was
incisioned and the retained eggs, if any, were counted by hand.
2.3 Data Analysis
2.3.1 Salmon Escapement Monitoring by SSS Counter
The SSS counters operated at Yentna Station (TRM 04) in 1984 each had a
design counting range of 60 feet which was divided into 12 equal
sectors. The sonar electronics registered individual sector counts
hourly on a printer. The printer tapes were edited in the field and
rechecked in the office for debris counts. This editing procedure and
the methodology for interpolating for lost sector count$ can be found in
Barrett et al, (1984).
The daily fish registered echoes by each SSS counter at Yentna Station
(TRM 04) were apportioned based on the percent species catch by the
fishwheel operating on the same day off the same bank. In instances
when the daily fishwheel catch was less than 150 fish the SSS counts
were apport1oned according to the cumulative fishwheel catch for the
succeeding number of days required to reach a 150 fish threshold catch
sample.
2.3.2 Salmon Tag and Recapture Estimates
The 1984 salmon escapements to Flathorn (RM 22), Sunshine (RM 80),
Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM 120) stations were quantified in this
-13-
report using a modified Petersen model by Ricker {1975). The except ion
was for chinook salmon measuring less than 351 11111 FL (jacks). The
procedure for calculating the jack chinook salmon escapemen ~s along with
a discussion of the assumptions and su;tability of the Petersen model,
and method used to determine the associated confidence 1 imi ts can be
found in Barrett et al, {1984).
2.3.3 Escapement Timing
The 1984 sal~n escap~nt timings have been calculated in thi s report
for each species by station based on fishwheel catches. A species
migration at a sampling station was defined to have 'started', ' reached
a midpoint' and 'er1ed' on the date when 5 percent, 50 percent and 95
percent respecti vel y, of the season cumulative, mean hourly, station
fishwheel Cdtch by species was reached.
Escapement timings by salmon species have also been graphically
presented in this report using fishwheel catch per unit effort curves.
These curves were smoothed by the von Hann 11 near fi 1 ter method { BMDP ,
1981).
2.3.4 Aging Escapement Samples
Standard scale analysis techniques were followed in deter.ining the ages
of the 1984 salmon escapements (Clutter and White s el, 1956}. all sa lmo n
ages have been described in this report using the Gilber-Rich notati on
{Barrett et al, 1984).

2.3.5 ~ough Escapements
Respective 1984 sockeye and chum salmon escapements to individual
sloughs above RM 98 .6 have been calculated by developing a spawner
abundance curve from a series of live fish counts ·throughout the
spawning season and then determining escapement from the area un1er the
curve on the basis of average fish observation life (Cousens et al,
1982). There were two exceptions to this method which were : 1) when a
peak escapement count for a slough was less than 15 live and dead fish
and 2) when only one spawning ground survey was made. Total slough
escapements in these cases have been detennined by adjusting the peak
or single escapement count by a factor derived by dividing the sum of
the estiMated individual slough escapements above RM 98.6 having peak
counts of 50 or more fish by the sum of tile peak counts from these
sloughs (Barrett et al, 1984) •
Pink salmon escapements to sloughs above RM 98.6 in 1984 have been
detennined by adjusting the peak live and dead survey counts by a factor
of 1.15. This was derived fr·om the average of an expected 80 to 90
percent of the spawning population being present at the peak escapement
count (Cousens et at, 1982).
2.3.6 Estimating Total Susitna Ri ver Chinook Salmon Escapements
Annual chinook salmon escapements to the Susitna River drainage for 1982
thr·ough 1984 were calculated by the following formula:
-15-
where:
" NT = Total Susitna River chinook salmon escapement.
s1 = Number of chinook salmon counted in index streams
below RM 80.
s2 = Number of chinook salmon counted in index streams
above RM 80 .
" NRM80 = Chinook salmon escapement .estimate for. RM 80 by the
Petersen method.
m • Estimated percent of the RM 80 chinook salmon escapement
estimate that reached RM 80 but spawned below RM 80 .
Several assum ptions were made in computing the 1982, 1983 and .1984
chinook salmon escapements to the Susitna River system . They were:
1. The ratios of the number of chi nook salmon not counted to the
number of chinook salmon cour~ted above and below RM 80 were
nearly identical within each year (1982-84).
2. Survey effort, conditions and timing (of index streams) were
similar above and below RM 80 within ea ch year (1982-84).
3. Twen~y percent of the estimated escapements to RM 80(Sunshine
Station) in 1982, 1983 and 1984 were milling fish.

3.0 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
3.1 Pacific Salmon
~-· ... ~ ...... ..4-J
The Susitna River is the single largest producer of Pacific salmon in
Cook Inlet (ADF&G. 1982}. Annually five species return to the system
through Cook Inlet where except for chinook salmon, they are subject to
an intensive, commercial fishery by set and drift net fishermen. In the
S•tsitna River the five spe ci es are subject to harvest by sport fishermen
(Mills, 1983). However. the main emphasis is on chinook and coho
salmon.
Minimum Susitna River salmon escapements not including chinook salmon
have been reported for the last three years at: 678,000 fish (1981}.
1,693.800 fish (1982) and 577,800 fish (1983) (Barrett et al, 1984).
These estimates only reflect the esc~pements of sockeye, pink, chum and
coho salmon to the Yentna River (RM 28) and RM 80. In 1984 the Susi tna
River supported a mi nimum escapement of around 5.5 million Pacific
salmon based on Petersen population estimates of sockeye, pink, chum and
coho salmon escapements for RM 22 and an estimate of the total Susitna
River chinook salmon escapement through a Petersen population estimate
for RM 80 (Table 3) and selected spawning ground surveys. The
composition of this estimate is : 4.6 percent chinook salmon, 11.0
percent !iOCkeye salmon~ 66.1 percent pink salmon, 14.8 percent chum
salmon and 3.5 percent coho salmon .

migrations at five locati~ns on the Susitna and Yentna rivers mai nstems

The reader will find the subsections formatted by species order and
Susitna River reach . The species order is: chinook, sockeye, pink,
chum and coho salmon. The river reach division is: lower reach
[Intertidal (RM 0.0) to Chulitna River confluence (RM 98.6)] and middle
reach ~Chulitna River confluence to upper Devil Canyon (RM 161.0)].
3.1.1 Chinook Salmon
In the last 10 years chinook salmon returning to the Susitna River have
not been a target species in the commercial fishery of Upper Cook Inlet.
This is due to the early nature of the migrational timing of this
species relative to the annual opening date of the fishery (ADF&G,
1982). However, there is a freshwater sport fishery on Susitna River
chinook sa lmon. The annual harvest for 1981-1983 has averaged 7,800
f i sh (pers. conrn, K. Delaney). The sport take is principally from

tributary spawning stocks in the lower river reach. In the Susitn1
River drainage there are about 60 chinook salmon spawning populations
(ADF&G, 1982). The most important spawning areas are Alexander Creek
(RM 9.8), Deshka River (RM 40.5), lake Creek (RM 28) and Prairie Creek
(RM 97.1) (Barrett et al, 1984).
The Sport Fish Division of ADF&G has estimated the lasi: two years uf
Susitna River chinook salmon ~scapements to be 82,800 fish (1982) and
91,800 f i i h (1983). Th ~s e esti mates were determined by expa11ding surv•!Y
counts of selected spawning grounds (pers. comm, K. Delaney). The 1932
and 1983 escapements to the mainstem Susitna River for RM 80 only we~
an estimated 52,900 fish (1982) and 90,100 fish (1983 ) by the Peters•m
method (Barrett et al, 1984).
This year (1984) chinook salmon escapements into the Susitna River wet~
monitored by ADF&G, Su Hydro staff at Sunshine St3tion (RM 80) in the
lower reach and at Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM 120) stations in the
mi dd 1 e reach. The respective escapements detenni ned by the Peterse 1
method are provided in F;gure 2 and Table 4. The total escapement intu
the Susitna River basin for 1984 was in the range of 250,0UO f ish. This
estimate is base~ on se 1 ected spawning grL,ull..:: surveys and the Petersen
escapement est ~mate for Sunshine Station (Section 2.3.6).

A comparison of the total estima ted chinook salmon
esc apement for the Susitna River dra i nage to the estimated
RM 80, 103 and 120 escapements, 1984.
Yentna stations are listed in Appendix Tables 2-3 and 2-6. Ch i nook salmon
apportioned SSS counts for Yentna Station are in Appendix Tables 3-1 and
3-2.
An estimated 121,700 chinook salmon reached Sunshine Station (RM 80) in
1984 (Tables 4 and 5). Less than four percent of these fish were
jack salmon measuring 350 mm or smaller Fl (Table 5) and the remainder
(96.2%) were chinook salmon over 350 mm FL. The estimate of 117,100
fish larger than 350 mm Fl was calculated by the Petersen method
-21 -
{Section 2.2.1). The jack salmon portion of the esti mate was calculated
based on the ratio of jacks to adults ( > 350 nn Fl) determined by a
length sample from the fishwheels.

At Sunshine Station (RM 80) the fishwheels i ntercepted 7,550 chinook
salmon in 1984 (Table 6). Based on these catches, chinook salmon were
abundant in the Sus1tna River mainstem at RM 80 for 27 days in 1984.
The migration began on June 9, reached a midpoint on June 21 and ended
on July 6 (Appendix Table 2-11). The chinook salmon migration at RM 80
began and ended about four days earlier on the west side than the east
side based on east and west bank fishwheel catches.
At Sunshine Station (RM 80) the two east bank · wheels caught
approximately 73 percent (5,520 fish) of the 7,550 fish intercepted at
RM 80 and the two west bank wheels caught the remaining 27 percent
(2,030 fish). Tag recove~ surveys above RM 80 indicated the east bank
fistntheels at RM 80 were slightly less efficient than the west bank
wheels (Appendix Table 6-4). Assuming the null hypotheses of no
difference in east and west bank fishwheel efficiencies it would have

been expected that the ratio of east bank tag released fish at RM 80 to
east bank recaptured fish upstream of RM 80 would be nearly the same
ratio for corresponding west bank tagged fish. The respective ratios
were 9.7:1 and 7.9:1 wh i ch indicate efficiency differences (Figu~e 3).
Tag recovery work conducted above RM 80 point to segregation of the
chinook salmon stocks at RM 80 (Figure 3). The data indicate that the
west side tributary stocks, including those of the Chulitna River
drainage favored the west side of the Susitna River at RM 80 for
migration. The ea s t side tributary stocks,mai nly of the Talkeetna River
drainage favored the east side more than the west side of the Susitna
River at RM 80 for migration. The chinook stocks in the middle ~e ach of
the Susitna River were about equally split between the east and west
banks at RM 80. These stock differences were determined by analytical
comparison of the ratios of the east and west bank marked fish at RM 80
to the respective ratios of east and west bank tagged f i sh found in

3.1.1.1.2 Spawning Ground Surveys
3 .1.1.1.2.1 Mainstem
In 1984 field crews surveyed the Susitna River uainstes fro~~ RM 28 to
98.6 by helicopter and waterbourne craft about weekly and found no
evidence that the lower Susitna River mainstem strved as chinook salmon
spawning habitat (Appendix 7). These surveys we~! performed from August
21 through October 17. 1984 which is well after the peak spawning
occurred in local streams . Fish tagging crews i n the course of their
duties at Flathorn (RM 22), Yentna (TRM 04) and Sunshine (RM 80)
stations i n June, July and early August also looked for visual evidence
of chinook salmon spawning such as repeated surf.tc1ng of ripe fish and
carcasses on gravel bars and shoals not related t o washouts from known
spawning streams. They also found no evidence of chinook salmon
spawning in the mainstem.
3.1.1.1.2.2 Streams and Sloughs
Associated stream confluences and sloughs were !urveyed for chinook
salmon presence between July 21 and October 21, 19~4. The results are
presented it. Appendix 7.

3.1.1.2 Midd l e Reach
3.1.1.2.1. Mainstem Escapement Monitoring
In 1984 the chinook salmon escapemt.nt to the ·iddle Susitna River reach
was an estimated 24,800 fish at Talkeetna Station (RM 103) and 18,000
f ish at Curry Stat ion (RM 120) (Tables 4 and 5). About 45 percent and
24 percer.t respectively of the escapements reachin~ these stations were
mi 11 i ng f i sh that dropped back downstream and spawned . These
percentages were determined by spawning ground counts conducted above
the tw o stations (Section 3 .1 .1.2.2.2). Most of the chinook salmon that
strayed to Talkeetna and Curry stations were destined to spawn in the
Talkeetna and Chulitna river systems (Appendix Table 6-4).
About one percent of the chi nook salmon escapement reaching Ta 1 keetna
Station (~ 103) was jacks (~ 350 mm) (Table 5). At Curry Stati on (RM
120) 3.6 percent of the escapement was jacks. Due to Mgher inshore
water velocities at Curry Station than at Talkeetna Station and
preference of adult chinook salmon for high water velocities it would
have been expected that more jack salmon would have been caught at
Talkeetna Station and consequently, would have represented a hi gher
fraction of the estima ted escapement. This was not the case. One
possibility for the variation is the d ifference in stocks migrating to
Talkeetna and Curry stations. As previously repor ted higher numbers of
milling fish from Chulitna and Talkeetna rivers reached Ta lkeetna
Station than at Curry Stati on. A lower jack salmon concentration i n
these stocks would account for the reported variability between
Talkeetna and Curry stations.

The migration timings of the 1984 ch i nook escapements to Talkeetna (RM
103) and Curry (RM 120) stations have been determined by analysis of the
fishwheel catches at these stations (Appendix Tables 2-14 and 2-17). At
Talkeetna Station chinook salmon were abundant i n the mainstem for 26
days and at Curry Station for 24 days . At Talkeetna Station the
migration began on June 16 and ended on July 12. The midpoint occurred
on June 26. Chinook salmon traveling along the east and west banks of
the Susitna River at Talkeetna Station had approximately the same
migration timing. The chinook salmon migration at Curry Station began
on June 19, reached a midpoint on June 25 and ended on July 13. Also
based on fishwheel catches there was no differential timing between
chinook salmon traveling off the east and west banks at Curry Station.
A plot of daily fishwheel catches at Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RH
120) stations as provided in !Figure 7 indicate there was a surge in
chinook salmon numbers at these stations around June 19, 1984. The
increase in fish numbers can be attributed to a flow change in the
Susitr.a River. On June 16, river flow at the USGS station at Gold Creek
increased 9,400 .cfs over the previous day to 40,600 cfs and continued to
rise . On June 17, the flow peaked at 52,000 cfs and by June 19 the flow
was down around 33,600 cfs (Figure 8}. Fishwheel catches at Talkeetna
and Curry stations were relatively weak during the high flow event in
the order of 0.4 fish per wheel hour whereas when the flow returned to a
near pre-flood level, catc hes excellerated to an average 1.6 fish per
wheel hour. Other than the mentioned flow change there were no other
known events that could explain the dramatic change in catch levels svch
as an alteration in commercial or sport fishing effort.

Provisional USGS discharge data for station No. 15292000
from May 15 through September , 1964.
In 1984 at Talkeetna Station (RM 103) chinook salmon were about 14
percent more abundant along the east side of the Susitna River than
along the west side at RM 103 based on f i shwheel dat~ (Appendix Tables
2-12 and 2-14). The tocal station' catch was 3,407 ch i nook salmon (Table
6). Abou t 57 percent of the catch was taken off the east bank and the
remaining 43 percent was taken along the west bank . Upstream at Curry
Station (RM 120) approximately ten percent more chinook salmon migrated
t off the east bank than off the west bank . The east bank wheel accounted
for 56 percent and the we st bank whee l caught the remaining 46 percent
of the total station catch of 1,589 chinook salmon (Appendix Tables 2-15
and 2-1 6).

The 1984 migrational r ates of tagged chinook salmon in the Sus i tna Riv er
mainstem between Sunshine (RM 80 ), Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM 120 )
stations are presented in Append ix 2 and sunnarized i n Figure 9.
Generally, chinook salmon covered the 23 miles from Su nshine to
Talkeetna stations i n seven to ni ne da ys, the 40 miles from Sunshine to
Curry stati ons in 11 to 13 days and the 17 miles between Talkeetna and
Curry stations in four to six days . The r~~pective migration speeds
were 3.3 mpd, 3.6 mpd and 4.3 mpd derived from the median travel numbers
given in Figure 9. Based on these migration speeds, chinoo k salmon
migrated slower and/or milled more i n the r i ver reach between Sunshine
and Talkeetna stations than between Talkeetna and Curry stations.

In 1984, representative age, length (FL) and sex information were
collected from chinook salmon caught in the fishwheels at Talkeetna (RM
103) and Curry (RM 120) stations. The 1984 escapement at Talkeetna
Station was comprised of three to seven year old fish (Table 8). The
six year o 1 d fish from the 1978 parent year were dominate ( 47. 7!:)
followed by the seven year old fish (28.5!:) f ;om the 1977 parent year
escapement. Least abundant were three year old fish (l.U:) produced
from the 1981 spawning year. The average chinook salmon length (FL) at
Talkeetna Station in 1984 was 816 mm (Appendix Figure 5-2}. The average
male was about 90 mm smaller than the average female. Overall, male and
female chinook salmon were equally abundant (1.0:1) at Talkeetna Station
(Table 9). However, mal'!s were more abundant than females among the
younger age group (3-5 year olds) by a ratio of 5.5:1 and females were
more abundant in the older age group (6-7 year olds) by a male ·to female
ratio of 0. 7:1.
At Curry Station (RM 120) in 1984, the chinook salmon escapement was
comprised of three to seven year old fish (Table 8). Six year old fish
from the 1978 parent year were dominate (40.6~) followed by seven year
old fish (29.5S) from the 1977 broad year. Least abundant were four
year olds (6 .0S) from the 1980 spawning year. The average t.itiuook
salmon length (FL) at Curry Station in 1984 was 801 mm (Appendix Figure
5-3). The average female 1 ength was about 140 mm 1 onger than the
average male length (Appendix Figure 5-30). In the younger age groups
(3-5 year olds) there were more males than females by a ratio of 27.0:1
In the older age groups (6-7 year olds) there were more females than
males by a male to female ratio of 0. 7:1. For all age samples the
overall male to female ratio was 1 .2:1 (Table 9).

3.1.1.2.2 Spawninq Ground Surveys
3.1.1.2.2.1 Mainstem
In 1984, field crews visually surveyed the Susitna River r.1iddle reach
and found no evidence of chinook salmon spawning in the !ilainstem. A
number of chinook salmon carcasses were found on gravel bars in the
mainstem in early August but all were considered to be fish that washed
out from nearby spawning streams.
3.1.1.2.2.2 Sloughs and Streams
Thirty six sloughs and 25 streams in the middle reach were repeatedly
surveyed for salmon spawning between late July and mid October, 1984.
Also, seven streams above RM 161.0 were surveyed between late July and
mid August for chinook salmon.
Survey results indicate that chinook salmon did not use middle Susitna
River reach sloughs for spawning or milling in 1984 (Appendix 6).
Chinook salmon were however, found in 12 streams above RM 98.6 (Table
10). The peak recorded counts totalled 7,180 chinook salmon. The major
concentration {96.2%) was found in Indian River (RM 138 .6} and Portage
Creek (RM 148.9) (Figure 10}. Fourth of July Creek (RM 131.1\ and
Whiskers Creek ( RM 101.4) accounted for 1. 3 percent and ". ~ percent
respectively of the total peak count. The eight other streams together
contributed 1.6 percent.

Chinook salmon spawned in the interface of Indian River (RM 138.6),
Portage Creek (RM 148 .9), Fourth of July Creek (RM 131.1) and Whiskers
Creek (RM 101.4) in 1984 (Appendix Figures 6-40, 6-36 and 6-24). Except
for Whiskers Creek the major spawning areas were upstream of stream
mouths. In Portage and Fourth of July creeks, chi nook salmon spawning
was about evenly distributed to the upper limit of migration. At Indian
River the majority of the spawning occurred 1n the first two miles.
Spawn ing ground counts of chinook salmon in Indian River (RM 138.6) and

cOMparisons indicate that the first quarter mile reach of Portage Creek
is mainly a migrational corridor for chinook salmon and that the
majority of the spawning occurred above this reach. At Indian River the
first mile reach is important not only as a migrational corridor for
chinook salmon but as a spawning area . It can also be determined from
the information pres,,ted in Figures 11 and 12 that helicopter and foot
surveys of these streams provide similar results .
Chinook salmon spawning in streams above RM 98.6 extended from mid July
to mid August (Appendix 6}. The peak spawning occurred in the last week
of July.

The minimum number of chinook salmon that spawned in the middle Susitna
River reach was 13,800 fish. This estimate was determined by increasing
the tota 1, pea k stream escapement count of 7,180 by a factor of 1. 92
based on work by Neilsen and Green (1981) that indicated a peak spawning
count represents less than 52 percent of a spawning population. By the
same method, the spawning escapements above Talkeetna Station (RM 103)
was at least 13,660 fish and above Curry Station (RM 120), 13,610 fish.
Based on these estimates 45 and 24 percents respectively of the chinook.
salmon that reached Tallc.eetna and Curry stations in 1984 were mil 1 i ng
fish that spawned below these stations. Conversely about 55 percent of
the escapement that reached Tal keetna Station in 1984 migrated above RM
103 to spawn and about 76 percent of the escapement reaching Curry
Station i n 1984 spawned above RM 120.
3.1.1.3 Escapement Index Surveys
Based on a survey of 16 index streams, the 1984 chi nook salmon
escapement to the Susitna River basin was about 25 percent higher than
the previous eight year average and 20 percent higher than the 1983
esc3oement (Figure 13 and Tables 11 and 12}. Most of the streams
surveyed (10 out of 16) in 1984 supported higher chinook salmon
escapements than in any previous year between 1976 and 1983. All major
subreaches of the Susitna River basin with exception of the west reach

streams below Talkeetna averaged a 140 percent higher escapement count
than the previous eight year average and a 60 percent higher escapement
count than in 1983. West side streams below Talkeetna in 1984 had a 15
percent lower escapement count than the average for 1976 to 1983 and a
15 percent lower escapement count than in 1983. Index streams of the
Ch ulitna River s ubdrainage (RM 98.6) had a 95 percent higher fish count
in 1984 than the prev i ous eight year average an d a 10 percent higher
count than in 1983. In the Talkeetna River subdrainage (RM 97 .1) the
1984 escapement count was 95 percent higher than the 1976 to 1983
average and 160 percent higher than in 1983. The middle Susitna River
reach above Talkeetna had a 350 percent higher escapement co unt than the
previous eight year average and a 60 percent higher escapement count
than in 1983.
Annually performed chinook salmon escapement counts of i .ndex streams do
not provide an absolute r ~asure of between year escapement differences.
In general the index stream counts are a 'hit or miss' proposition
attributable in part to factors of weather, inadequate funding and
personal restraints. Commonly, poor weather and temporary high
discharges occur in the Susitna Ri ver basin between mid July and early
August. Such conditions often cause survey delays of a week or more
resulting in the peak spawning period to be missed or the surveys being
perfonned under poor observation conditions. In recent years nearl y
one-third of the index streams have not been surveyed mainly because of
inadequate allocation of funding for air charter. Another program
deficiency is observer time . Most of the surveys are conducted by staff
responsible for other duties coinciding with the timing of chinook
salmon spawning. Schedule confli c ts often occur which result in missed
-47-
surveys, surveys being cond ucted at less than desirable weather
conditions and repetitive counts not being made to document between year
variation of spawn i ng duration and timing. It is best to consider the
1984 chinook salmon index survey program and previous year programs a
general, non-quantitative perspective of between year escapement
variability. From this perspective it can be determined that the 1984
chinook salmon escapement for the Susitna River basin, based on index
stream surveys, fell well within or slightly above the escapement
average for the last eight years.

3.1.2 Sockeye Salmon
The Susitna River supports two runs of sockeye salmon . The first run is
sma ller than the second run and unlike the second run is not subject to
a commercial fishery . The first run probably is in the range of 5 to 10
thousand fish based on three years of escapement monitoring at Sunshine
Station (RM 80) (Barrett et al, 1984) and an unpublished sighting of
suspected first run sockeye in Fish lake Creek off the Yentna River (RM
28) by Barrett in 1973. The seco nd run of sockeye salmon is
substantially larger being comprised of over 40 separate populations .
Second run stocks are harvested by drift and set net fishermen in Upper
Cook Inlet. The commercial contribution of Susitna River stocks is in
the range of 10 to 30 percent (Barrett et al, 1984). Susitna River,
second run sockeye salmon escapements have never been completely
quantified. However minimum annual escapements of 175,900 to 272,900
second run fish have been reported for years 1981 to 1983. These
estimates were determined by escapement monitoring to the Yentna Ri ver
and at RM 80 (Barrett et al, 1984). In 1984 the minimum escapement was
an estimated 605,800 fish based on a first year, tag and recapture
operation at RM 22 (S ection 3.1.2.2).
Presented in the following subsections are the results of sampling 1984
first and second run sockeye salmon escapements in the lower and middle
river reache : of the Susitna River drainage.
3.1.2.1 First Run
In the Susitna Riv e r drainage one confirmed and another s uspected stock
-49-
of first run sockeye salmon passes through the lower river reach
annually between late May and mid June. The confirmed stock migrates
past Sunshine Station (RM 80) and s pawns in the Talkeetna River drainage
in the Papa Bear lake system (Figure 14). The s us pected, second stock
utilizes the Fi sh Lake Creek system off the Yentna River (unp ubli shed
report, Barrett 19 73) (Figure 15). With exception of a few milling
fish, first run sockeye salmon do not penetrate or spaw n i n the middle
reach of the Susitna River (Barrett et al, 1984).
3.1.2.1.1 lower Reach
3.1.2.1.1.1 Ma in Channel Escapement Monitoring
In 1984, Yentna Station (TRM 04) on the Yentna River was not ~perational
early enough to monitor fi rst run escapE!n'ent. Sunshi ne Station (RM 80)
was operational on June 4 in time to monitor the escapement into the
Talkeetna River system. Based on the Petersen method the 1984
esca pement at Sunsh ine Station as about 4,800 fis h (Ta ble 13).

The four fishwheels at Sunshine Station (RM 80) caught 500 first run
sockeye salmon in 1984 (Table 13). Based on an analysis of the catch
the migration began on June 4, reached a midpoint on June 10 and was
over by June 22 (Appendix Table 2-11). The peak migration occurred on
June 9 with an average catch per fishwheel hour on this date of 0.6
fish.
The two east" bank fishwheels at Sunshine Station (RM 80) caught 98.8
percent of the station catch of first run sockeye salmon in 1984. The
west bank wheels intercepted the remaining 1.2 percent. From this it is
apparent that first run fish near exclusively used the east side of the
Susitna River at RH 80 for migration in 1984.
First run sockeye salmon were sampled at the fish~.,h eels at Sunshine
Station (RM 80) to determine representative escapement age, length (Fl)
and sex composition (Table 14). Nearly the entire 1984 escapement
(96.5%) was five year old fish from the 1979 brood year (Table 15). The
remainder of the escapement (3.6%) included four and six year old fish.
Nearly alJ the returning first run sockeye salmon in 1984 had spent one
winter in freshwater before entering the marine environment. The
average length (Fll of a first run sock.eye salmon in 1984 was 532 111n
(Appendix Figure 5-6). The males averaged about 36 mm longer than the
females. The male to female ratio in the escapement was 0.5:1 (Table
16). Female fish were more abundant than males in all age classes (4-6
year olds).

3.1.2.1.1.2 seawning Ground Surve~s
Th first run sockeye salmon that migrated past Sunshine Station (RM 80)
in early June 1984 spawned in the inlet stream of Papa Bear Lake located
in the Talkeetna Rive r drainage . The spawning extended from the creek
mo uth up stream about 1.5 miles and t ook place mainly over a three ~eek
p2riod f rom the secon d to the l ast weeks of Ju l y . The peak of spa wning
occurred around July 20. These findings are based on two escapeme nt
surveys conducted on July 14 and 26 (Table 17). On the f i rst survey
there were about 1,500 sockeye i n Papa Bear Inlet stream that were just
beginning to spawn and another 500 to 1,000 fish hold i ng off the creek
mouth in Papa Bear Lake . There were no sockeye carcasses in the creek
other tha·n about 50 fresh, bear killed fish . On the second s urvey on

July 26, most of the fish in the creek were in post-spawning condition,
and there were no sockeye salmon observed off the stream, mouth.
The results of 1984 tag recovery surveys covering first run sockeye
salmon are listed in Table 17 . About 8.5 percent of the 1,536 fish
observed on the July 14 survey of Papa Bear Lake inlet stream were
tagged compared to 16 .7 percent of the 432 fish counted on the last
survey (July 26). These figures indicate that the first run migration
at RM 80 began a few days before tagging operations started or that the
fishwheels at Sunshine Station {RM 80) were more efficient at the end of
the migration than at the beginning . Review of the daily fishwheel
catches at Sunshine Station supports the conclusion that some first run
sockeye salmon passed Sunshine Station prior to the beginning of site
operations on June 4. Inasmuch as the first run escapement spawned over
a relatively short time period (three weeks) and the two escapement
surveys were random, the Petersen method is still appropriate for

calculating the escapement even though some early migrating fish were
not intercepted.

13 .5) drainages probably milled in the lower river reach up to and
beyond the fishwheels operated at RM 22 . However, no spawning surveys
were performed below RM 22, and therefore it is not possible to quantify
the level of milling. The estimated escapement of 605,800 fish for
Flathorn Station should be considered the number of fish that reached
this location and not the number of fish which necessarily spawned
upstream of this location.
In the Yentna River (RM 28) at Yentna Station (TRM 04) the 1984
escapement wa s approximately 149,400 fish determined by SSS counters
(Table 19). This represents about 25 percent of the estimated
escapement to Flathorn Station (RM 22). At Sunshine Station (RM 80)
farther upstream in the lower river reach an estimated 130,100 second
run sockeye salmon reached this location as calculated by the P~tersen
method (Table 18). This escapement estimate represents about 21 perce11t
of the reported escapement to Flathorn Station. Base · on the estimated
escapement of Flathorn, Yentna and Sunshine stations about 300,000
sockeye salmon spawned in areas of the Susitna River basin other than in
the Yentna River drainage and above RM 80. The four known sockeye
salmon spawning systems below RM 80 excluding the Yentna River are
defined in Figure 17. Of these the Fish Creek drainage (PM 8) is
probably the most productive based on historic surveys (ADF&G, 1982).
The Alexander (RM 10 ) and Deshka (RM 40) rivers and Whitsol lake
drainages are minor sockeye salmon systems (per. comm, K. Delaney).

The migrational timing of the 1984 second run escapements in the lower
Susitna River reach can be determined by station fishwheel catches
(Figure 18 and Appendix Table 2-3). At Flathorn Station (RM 22) the
migration covered approximately a three week period from July 16 to
August 9. The midpoint of the migration in the east channel occurred on
July 22 and one day earlier in the west channel on July 21 . Overall,
there was no appreciable difference in the escapement timing between
east and west channel migrating stocks at RM 22. About 10 mi lE·s
upstream at Yentna Station (TRM 04) the second run escapement migration
began on July 17, reached a midpoint on July 22 and ended on August 8.
These dates are one day later than the comparable dates for fish
migrating in the west channel past Flathorn Station (Figure 18). At
Sunshine Station (RM 80) the sockeye migration covered 16 days from Jul y
20 through August 5. The migration midpoint occurred on July 24 just
f~ur days after the start (Figure 19).
In 1984, sockeye salmon tagged at Fl athorn Station (RM 22} were
recaptured at upriver sampling stations on the mainstems of the Yentna
and Susitna rivers. The results are presented in Appendix 4 and
summarized in Figure 20 . The data indicate that tag~ed, sockeye salmon
migrated the 10 miles between Flathorn and Yentna (TRM 04) stations

catch efficiency between station fishwheels were different due to site
variability and because two more wheels were operated at Flathorn and
Sunshine stations than at Yentna Station. Density independent factors
effecting fishwheel catches include nearshore velocities, channel
configuration, bank slope and bed material.
Catch difference between station fishwneeis ca~ indicate fish migration
preferences. At Flathorn Station (RM 22) sockeye salmon slightl y

favored the west channel over the eas ~ channel for migration based on
54.8 percent of the station catch made by west channe l fishwheels and
45 .2 percent by the east channel fishwheels {Appendix Tables 2-1 and
2-2). In the west channel, sockeye salmon were more abundant along the
left bank than the right bank. The left and right bank whnels caught
59.9 percent and 40.1 percent of the catch respectively. In the east
channel at Flathorn Station, most of the fish passed along the left
bank . The 1 eft bank fi shwhee 1 caught 69.9 percent and the right bank
fishwheel caught the remaining 30.1 percent .
On the Yentna River (RM 28) at Yentna Station {TRM 04) sockeye salmon
favoretf the south bank over the north bank for migration. The south
bank fishwheel caught 91.5 percent of the station catch and the north
bank fishwheel made 8.5 percent of the catch. The same migration trend
was observed with the SSS counters at Yentna Station . About 95 percent
of the apportioned sockeye salmon counts were logged by the south bank
counter. At Sunshine Station (RM 80) most of the sockeye migrated along
the east bank. The two east bank fishwheels caught 76.5 percent of the
station catch and the remaining 23.5 ~ercent were taken in the two west
bank fishwheels.
In 1984, tag numbered sockeye salmon released in the east and west
channels of Flathorn Station (RM 22) were recaptured at Yentna Station
(TRM 04), and Sunshine (RM 80), Talkeetna {RM 103) and Curry (RM 120)
stations (Figure 21 and Table 20). The recapture information indicate
that most (73') of the sockeye salmon entering the Yentna River migrated

and above also preferred the east channel at Flathorn Station. About 96
percent of the tag numbered recaptures were re 1 eases form the east
channel fishwheels compared to about four percent from the west channel
wheels. Around 90 percent of the sockeye salmon which did not either
enter the Yentna River or migrate to RM 80 reached Flathorn Station via
the west channel. Most of these fish may have been destined to the
Flathorn Lake drainage as previously discussed .
Representative age, length and sex samples were collected from the 1984
sockeye salmon escapements to Flathorn (RM 22), Yentna (TRM 04) and
Sunshine (RM 80) stations. Most of the 1984 escapement in the lower
river there were four and five year old fish from the 1980 and 1979
parent years, respectively (Figure 22). The escapement at Flathorn
Station and about the same level of four year old fish as five year
olds. At Yentna Station, five year old fish were more abundant than the
four year olds, but at Sunshine Station four year old fish were nearly
twice as numerous as five year olds. At all the stations, most of the
escapement were returning fish that 1 eft freshwater to commence ocean
rearing in their second year of life. The average length (Fl) of a
second run sockeye salmon at Flathorn Station as 519 mm, at Yentna
Station 535 mm and at Sunshine Station 514 mm (Appendix Figures 5-4, 5-5
and S-7). The larger fish length at Yentna Station was due to the
higher return of five year olds to the Yentna River than elsewhere. At
all three stations the second run sockeye salmon males averaged a longer
length than the femal~s. Except at Flathorn Station were females were

Between July 21 and October 17, 1984 surveys of the Susitna River

3.1.2.2.2.1 Main Channel Escapement Mon i toring
Second run sockeye salmon escapements were monitored in the middle river
reach at Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM 120) stati ons in 1984 . The
estimated escapements to these locations were 13,100 fish and 3,600
fish, respectively (Table 18). The confidence limits associated with
these estimates are in Tab ~e 18 .
Most (83~) of the sockeye salmon escapement reaching Talkeetna Station
(RM 103) were milling fish that spawned in the lower Susftna Ri ver
reach . ~bout 17 percent of the escapement reaching Talkeetna Station
spawned in the middle river reach. At Curry Station (RM 120) around 38
percent of the escapement were milling fish and 62 percent were fish
which spawned in the middle river reach . The bases for these estimates
are in report section 3.1.2.2.2.2.

In 1984, second run sockeye salmon migrated in the middle mainstem reach
of the Susitna River over a three to five week period as determined by
fishwheel catches at Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM 120) stations
(Appendix Tables 2-14 and 2-17). At RM 103, the migration began on July
22, reached a midpoint on July 28 and ended on August 12. Seventeen
miles upstream at RM 120, the sockeye salmon migration lasted about 13 ·
days longer. The onset began on July 22, midpoint was on August 1 and
the end occurred on August 25.
The 1984 migrational rates of tagged sockeye . salmon recovered · ·in the
lower and middle Susitna River reaches are presented in Appendix 4 and
summarized in Figure 20. The data indicate that tagged fish generally
traveled between Sunshine (RM 80) and Talkeetna (RM 103) stations in
about four days and two to five days between Talkeetna and Curry (RM
120) stations. Overall, the migration between Sunshine and Curry.
stations genf':rally took six to nine days. From the lowest site in the
lower Susitna River, Flathorn Station (RM 22) to the furthest upper
middle river site, Curry Station, the 98 miles were normally covered in
14 days for an average net migr'ttion speed of 7 mpd.
In 1984 the majority of the sockeye salmon passed along the west bank at
Talkeetna Station (RM 103) and the east bank at Curry Station (RM 120)
based on reported fishwheel catches (Figure 23). The east and west bank
fishwheels at Talkeetna St ~tion respectively caught 44 percent and 56
percent of the stati.on catch (Appendix Tables 2-12 and 2-13). At Curry
Station, the east and west bank wheels caught 80 percent and 20 percent
of the station catch respectively.

Sockeye salmon fishwheel catches at Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM
120) stations were generally, normally distributed through the migration
period (Figure 23). There were two major exceptions and both occurred
about the same time at the two stations. They appear to be related to a
flow change in the Susitna River. At Talkeetna Station between July 26
and 27 sockeye salmon catches dropped from a high of 1. 2 fish per
fishwheel hour (CPUE) to 0.2 CPUE and then climbed again to 0 .9 CPUE on
July 28. Thfs coincided with a high water event where flows as measured
at Gold Creek rose about 11,400 cfs from 22,800 cfs on July 25 to 34,200
cfs on July 27 and then declined and remained stable around 24,000 cfs
for the next two weeks. The fi shwhee 1 catches a 1 so changed at Curry
Station about the same time but less dramatically. On July 26, the CPUE
was 0.6 and for the next two days catches dropped 50 percent to 0.3 CPUE
and then rose again to 0.6 CPUE on July 29 as high flows subsided.
In 1984, ~8 second run sockeye salmon marked with numbered tags at
Talkeetna Station (RM 103) were recaptured at Curry Statio, (RM 120).
From the information listed in Table 21 it can be determined if sockeye
salmon tagged off the different banks at Talkeetna Station exercised
differential milling behavior and /or crossover. The data indicated that
a high percentage (89%) of the milling fish t~at reached Talkeetna
Station traveled along thP. west side of the Susi'tna River at this
location. Most of the escapement (86%) that continued on to Curry
Station were fish that migrated along the east bank of the river at
Talkeetna Station. There was more crossover among west bank migrant
fish than east bank fish based on recaptures at Curry Station. About 50
percent of the sockeye salmon that migrated past Talkeetna Station on
-73-
the west side of the river and continued on to Curry Station remained
along the east bank of the Susitna River at Curry Station. By
comparison, around 83 percent of the fish migrating along the east side
of the S\.lsitna River at Talkeetna Station and continuing on to Curry
Station were along the same bank of the Susitna River at Curry Station .

The 1984 migrational rates of second run sockeye salmon between Sunshine
(RM 80), Talkeetna (RM 103} and Curry (RM 120) stations have been
determined through tag recaptures. (Figure 20). The average migrational
speed between Sunshine and Talkeetna stations was 5.8 mpd and between
Talkeetna and Curry stations 8 .5 mpd. The differences in migrational
speed may be related to differential milling behavior. As previously
reported, sockeye salmon milled less in the area of Curry Station than
at Tal keet!'!~ Station. As one would expect, the higher the milling
activity the ·ilower the net migration speed. This would explain why
fish averaged a s 1 ower trave 1 speed between Sunshine and Ta 1 keetna
stations than between Talkeetna and Curry stations .

In 1984 a representative age, length and sex comp osit ion sample was
co 11 ected from second run sockeye salmon intercepted by fi shwhee 1 s at
Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM 120) ~t~tions. The !dta ind icate the
Talkeetna Station escapement was predominantly four (83.8%) and five
(14.5$) year old fish (Table 16). About 91.6 percent of four and f i ve
year old fish had smolted in their sec.ond year of life following
completion of one winter in freshwater as fry. The same trend was
apparent at Curry Station. Four year old fish represented 72.7 percent
and five year old fish 22 .7 percent of the escapemen t population. About
81.6 percent of the four and five year old fish reachin~ Curry Station
had smolted in their second year. Three and six year old sockeye salmon
represented 1 ess than five percent of the escapement populations to
Talkeetna and Curry stations . The average length (FL) of second run
sockeye salmon at Talkeetna Station was 513 11111 and 17 11111 smaller at
Curr:1 Station at 496 11111 (Appendix Figures 5-9 and 5-10). Generally
among all age classes sampled at Talkeetna Station males averaged about
20 11111 longer length than the females. At Curry Station, the males
averaged about 40 mm shorter length . Sex composition data collected
indicate males were less numerous at Talkeetna Station than females but
more numerous than females at Curry Station (Table 17). The respective
male to female ratios were 0.7:1 and 1.4:1.

Sockeye salmon spawning in the SusHna River mainstem , middle reach
occ11rred in September, 1984. The peak of spawning was around September
15 (Appendix Table 6-1).
Four of the seven mainstem sockeye salmon spawning area located in 1984
were in Side Channe l 11 (RM 134.5-135.3). The relatively high sockeye
salmon return to Slough 11 (RM 135.3) probably influenced the use of
these sites. The highest count of the seven mainstem spawning areas w~s
33 fish. Side Channel 11 accounted for 52 percent. If ~ssumed that the
highest count (33 fish) reflects about one -third of the spawn i ng
population the mainstem spawning popul~tion in the Susitna River middle
reach was probably around 10~ fish. In perspective with the estimated
escapements of 13,200 fish to Tr 1keetna Station (RM 103) and 3,200 fish
to Curry Station (RM 120) this would be about one percent of the
escapement migrating to Ta 1 keetna Station and three percent of the
escapement reaching Curry St,:tion .
3.1.2.2 .2.2.2 Streams
Thirty-seven s 1 oughs and 25 streams i n the middle river reach were
periodically surveyed for salmon spawning form late July to mid October,
1984. The results are listed in Appendix Tables 6-2 and 6-3.
Sockeye salmon were observed in only two streams i n the middle river
reach in 1984. These were Indian River (RM 138 .6 ) and Portage Creek (RM
148.9). The respective peak counts were 1 and 12 f i sh. Spawning wa s
only observed in Portage Creek at its junction with the Susitna River .
-77-
The sighting was 1 fmited to a pair of sockeye salmon occupyf,ng a redd at
the mouth of Portage Creek on September 2.
In the range of 25 sockeye salmon occupied stream habitats in the middle
Susana River reach 1n 19S4. This is based on an assumption that the
total peak count represents about 50 percent of the actual escapement.
Based on the number of spawning ground surveys conducted and the
relatively minimal number of fish counted, it can be concluded that
streams in the Susitna River middle reach are not important for sockeye
salmon production.
3.1.2.2.2.2.3 Slaughs
.3.1.2.2.2.2.3.1 Observation Life
In 19S4, 167 sockeye salmon were released at Curry Station (RM 120) with
hrge numbered Petersen disc tags. About 35 percent of these fish
entered sloughs SA (RM 125.1) and 11 (RM 135.3) after an average 38 days
from being tagged (Figure 25). The majority of the 3S days was probably
spent ripening in the Susitna River main channel based on sockeye salmon
being capable of sustaining relatively fast travel speeds over long
distances. For example, sockeye salmon averaged 7 mpd between Flathorn
(RM 22) and Curry stations in 19S4 (Section 3.1.2.2.2.1 ). The distance
between Curry Station and sloughs SA and 11 is 5.1 and 15.3 miles
respectively which could have easily been traveled in two days if direct
migration was intended.
There are several possible advantages of sockeye salmon ripening in the

Susitna River mainstem rather than in an associated slough. For
example, the middle reach sloughs are relatively shallow and non-turbid
making predation a greater factor than in the mainstem. Also the
sloughs are relatively small in size and may serve as a spawning area
for more than one species. Expectedly crowding and associated disease
problems would be le!.s in the mainstem than in the sloughs. In
drainages where there is a lake associated with a spawning stream or
slough, sockeye salmon c0111110nly ripen in the lake before initiating
spawning. For example, in the Kasilof River drainage, sockeye salmon
spend between three and four weeks ripening in Tustumena Lake rather
than in inlet spawning streams and sloughs, which are characteristically
similar to middle reach Susitna River sloughs which are shallow,
non-turbid, frequented by bears and commonly crowded with spawning fish
(AOF&G, 1972). In comparison, Tustumena Lake provides good escape cover
and dispersion area for tens of thousands of adult salmon as does the
Susitna River.
The mean average observation life of so~keye salmon entering sloughs SA
(RM 125.1) and 11 (RM 135.3) in 1984 was a.4 days (Figure 26). The
average fish observation life between the two sloughs varied by 1.1
days. Variations in observation life tim,.! between individual fish in
both sloughs were evident by the relatively large standard deviations.
The main cause for the variability was probably milling. Approximately
42 percent ·'af the 131 fish monitored at the two sloughs did not initiate
spawning (Table 22). Assumedly many left to other systems although some
may have been removed by predators.

Sockeye salmon spawned in 13 of the 18 sloughs. The three major
spawning sloughs were: 11 (RM 135.3), 8A (RM 125.4) and 21 (RM 141.1)
in that order of importance (Figure 27). Sloughs 5 (RM 107.6), 8 (RM
113.7), 88 (RM 122.2), 9 (RM 128.3) and 15 (RM 137.2) were not
considered spawning areas. Relatively few fish occupied these sloughs
and none were observed on redds. The peak survey counts of 1 ive and
dead sockeye salmon for the 18 occupied sloughs totaled 926 fish.
Sloughs 8A, 11 and 21 supported about 88 percent of the peak counts.
Spawning occurred in these sloughs from the fifst week of August through
the first week of October. The peak of spawning was between the last
week of August and the second week of September (Figure 28).

The total second run sockeye salmon escapement to sloughs in the middle
river reach was approx imate ly 2,200 fish based on results of spawning
ground counts and observation life surveys (Table 24). This represents
about 61 percent of the estimated escapement (3,600 fish) to Curry

3.1.3 Pink Salmon
Pink salmon are fished cocm~ercially in Upper Cook Inlet and
recreationally in associated freshwater system!;. In both fisheries, the
majority of the fish harvested are Sus i tna River stocks (ADF&G, 1982 and
Mills, 1983). With ·in the Susitna Ri ve r there are a minimum of 40
tributaries providing pink salmon spawning habitat. The major i ty of
these are in the l ower river r each below RM 80 (ADF&G, 1982).
The mininun Susitna River pink salmon escapements for the last three
years have been: 86,000 fish (1981). 891,000 f ish (1982) and 101,000
fish (1983) (Barrett et al, 1984 ). These minimum escapement numbers do
not include fish spawning below RM 80 with the exception of the Yentna
Ri ver (RM 28). In 1984, the minimum escapement was 3,629,900 f i sh as
determined by a first year tagging program a ~ RM 22 (Section 3.1.3.1.1).
The following subsections of this report present specific results of
sampling the 1984 pi nk salmon escapements i n ~he lower and middle river

fishwheel catch per unit effort data (Figures 31 and 32 and Appendix 2).
In the lower river reach at RM 22 pink salmon were generally abundant for
about three weeks from July 21 to August 7. The mi gration reached a
midpoint on July 28 in both the east and west channels (Appendix Table
2-3). Overall , there was little difference in the pink salmon migration
timing between east and west channels. Fifty·eight mi1es upr.iver at
Sunshine Station pink salmon were also abundant i n the Susitna River for
the two weeks from July 25 to August 8. The migration here reached

salmon were abundant for about three weeks from July 21 to August 5. The
pink salmon migration at TRM 04 reached a midpoint on July 28 . The peak
one day fism.heel catch of pink salmon at Flathorn, Yentna and Sunshine
stations occurred on July 28, July 25 and July 30, respectively (Figures 31

Pink salmon migrational characteristi cs were determined from 1984
fishwheel catches at Flathorn (RM 22), Yentna (TRM 04) and Sunshine (RM
80) stations (Figures 31 and 32 and Appendix 2). At Flathorn Station the
river was comprised of two channels , east and west . The channels were
formed by a large island comple x and f i shwheels were located on the east
and west mainland banks and the east and we s t banks of the largest island
(Appendix Figure 1-1). Fishwheel catches of pink salmon, adjusted by catch

per unit effort, were distributed among the four fishwheels as f ollows:
48.1 percent left east channel (island fishwheel), 28.0 percent right east
channel, 17.2 percent right west channel (island fishwheel) and 6.7 percent
left west channel . From these values i t is apparent that, given no
fishwheel selectivity or stock differentiation, pink salmon migrate
predominately in the east channel at RM 22. In the Yentna River at Yentna
Station, pink salmon migrated predomin antly along the south bank where 64.1
percent of the fishwheel catch at this station occurred. The majority
(63.5 percent) of' the 93,919 pink salmon intercepted at Sunshine Station
were captured in east bank fishwheels.
A rev i ew of 1984 tag recovery data collected at Yentna (TRM 04) and
Sunshine (RM 80) stations indicated that at RM 22, six miles below the
Yentna (RM 28) and Susitna rivers confluence, pink salmon stocks are not
segregated by river channel (Table 27). Yentna Station fishwheels
intercepted 24 pink salmon originally tagged at Flathorn Station (RM 22).
Fourteen of the 24 were numbered tags and of those fourteen, 50 percent
were tagged on the west channel and 50 percent on the east channel at RM
22. ~t RM 80, 103 and 120, a total of 62 pink salmon marked with Flathorn
Station numbered tags were recovered. Twelve and 87 percent. respectively,
were originally tagged on the west and east channels at RM 22. These data
indicate that Yentna River stocks were evenly distributed between the east
and west channels passing RM 22, while the ~~tajority (87r.) of the pink
salmon reaching Sunshine Station favored the east channel at RM 22 (Figure
33). These observations were derived from relatively small samples.

The 1984 migrational rates of pink salmon were determined from recovery of
tagged pink salmon at mainstem stations on the Yentna and Susitna rivers.
These data are presented in Appendix 2 and summarized in Figure 34. Pink
salmon required about 3 days to travel the 10 mile distance between
Flathorn (RM 22) and Yentna (TRM 04) stations. This represents a
migrational rate of 3.5 mpd. Pink salmon needed an average of about 7 days
to travel the 58 miles between Flathorn and Sunshine (RM 80) stations for a
migrational rate of 8.2 mpd . The slower average travel rate between
Flathorn and Yentna stations may be due to or a combination of: 1) tagging
related stress experienced at RM 22 or 2) milling at the confluence of the
Yentna (RM 28) and Susitna rivers.

Pink salmon escape.ents to Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM 120)
stations respectively represent 4.9 percent and 3.2 percent of the
minimum 1984 Susitna River escapement (F i gure 30). Based on the
estimated nu.ber of pink salmon spawning in stream and slough hab i tats
above RM 103 approxiute ly 85 and 80 percent of the escapement to
Talkeetna and Curry stations, respectively, were milling fish (Section
3 .1.3.2.2.2).
Fishwheel catches of pink salmon were used to evaluate migrational
timing at Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM 120) stations in 1984 (Figure
35 and Appendix 2}. Pink salmon were generally abundant at Talkeetna
Station for about two weeks fr011 July 25 through August 10. The
migration reached a median on August 3. At Curry Station pink salmon
were generally abundant for two weeks from July 29 to August 13. The
midpoint of the pink salmon migration at this station was August 4 .
Peak fishwheel catches occurred on August 3 at Talkeetna Station and on
August 5 at Curry Station.
Fishwheel catches at Talkeetna (RM 103} and Curry (RM 120} stations
indicate that the 1984 pi nk sa l mon escapements to these stations
migrated primarily along the west bank assuming that stocks were mi xed
and no differential fishwheel selectiv i ty occurred (Figure 35). A total
of 29,236 pink salmon were intercepted by Talkeetna Stati on fishwheels,
74 .8 percent of which were captured in west bank fishwheel s (Appendix
Tables 2-12 and 2-13). At Curry Station the total pink salmon fi s hwheel

t~captured, 59.8· percent originally tagged on the west bank at RM 103
and 40.2 percent on the east bank. These data indicate little
differential milling between east and west bank pink salmon stocks at RM
103. This is further substantiated by tag recoveries in Lane Creek (RM
113.6), 4th of July Cr eek (RM 131.1) and Indian River (RM 138.6) where a
combined 72.8 perce nt of the numbered Talkeetna Station tags recovered
from pink salmon carcasses were from fish tagged on the west bank at RM
103 (Table 30).· The pink salmon tar, recovery ratios from Curry Station
and the spawning grounds are similar to expected values given mixed
stocks and no differential milling at RM 103.
The 1984 migrational rates of tagged pink salmon recaptured in the lower
and middle Susitna River reaches are presented in Appendix 2 and Figure
34 . Based on these data, pink salmon required an average of about four
days to travel between Sunshine (RM 80) and Talkeetna (RM 103) stations
and about 2 days between Talkeetna and Curry (RM 120) stations for
respective migrational rates of 5.9 mpd and 9.4 mpd. Between Sunshine
and Curry stations, pink salmon traveled in about five days which
translates into a trav el rate of 7.7 mpd. Pink salmon traveled between
Flathorn {RM 22) and Talkeetna stations and Flathorn and Curry stations
in about 10 (8.1 mpd) and 11 (8.9 mpd) days. respectively .
Length (Fl) data obtained from a subsample of the Talkeetna (RM 103) and
Curry (RM 120) stations escapements are presented in Table 28 and
Appendix 5. Sample lengths ind icate that the average length of both
sexes combined was 447 mm at Talkeetna Station and 441 nwn at Curry
-101-
..
Station. Male pink salmon averaged 13 mm longer than females at
Talkeetna Station and 4 mm longer than females at Curry Station (Table
28). Male pink salmon were more numerous than females at both Talkeetna
and Curry stations . The respective male to female ratios were 1.1:1 and
1.6:1 (Table 28).

were conducted by boat and helicopter from July 21 through October 14.
The survey resul t s are ~resented in Appendi x 6. AOF&G field personnel
observed no pink salmon spawners in t l1e Susitna Ri ver main channel ,
however, an employee of E. Woody Trihey and Associates reported an
unquantified number of pink salmon spawning near the east bank at RM
119 .1 (T r ihey, 1984).
3.1.3 .2.2.2 Sloughs and St reams
Thirty seven sloughs and 25 streams between RM 98.6 and 161.0 were

The estimated pink salmon escapement to sloughs in 1984 was 619 fish
(Table 32). Pink salmon which spawn in c;loughs represent about one-
half of a percent of the escapement reaching Curry Station (RM 120),
re-enforcing the premise that pink salmo~ are distributed primarily in
stream habitats in this river reach.
In 1984, pink salmon were observed in 22 streams in the middle Susitna
River reach (Appendix 6). The peak live 3nd dead survey count of all
streams totaled 17,505 pink salmon (Table 33). Three streams
contributed 77.8 percent to the total; they were: Indian River (RM
138.6) (51.8 percent), Portage Creek (RM 148.9) (15.5 percent), and 4th
of Ju 1 y Creek ( Rf4 131. 1) (10. 5 percent). Stream surveys conducted in
the middle Susitna River reach consisted of two types, foot and
helicopter surveys. Foot surveys were generally conducted over a
predetermined reach of a stream, referred to as the index reach. These
surveys were not intended to enumerate total stream escapements, rather
provide a relativ~ index of abundance for each stream. Helicopter
surveys usua 11y encompassed the entire salmon spawning reach of each
stream surveyed. He 1 i copter surveys, with adjustments to account for
salmon observation life and efficiency of helicopter counts, may be used
to estimate the total escapement to a particular stream.
Pink salmon distribution within select streams between RM 98.6 and 161.0
was determined by repetitive helicopter surveys in 1984 (Appendix 6).
Based on these surveys, the upper limit of migration in the three most
productive pink salmon streams, Indian River (RM 138.6), Portage Creek
(RM 148.9) and 4th of July Creek (RM 131.1), was about 8.7, 6.8 and 1.9

of all three s{reams. In Indian River and 4th of July Ct ·eek most
pink salmon spawning occurred within the first two miles. In Portage
Cree.k, ma .jor pink salmon spawning areas were located between
approximately two and five miles from the mouth. The relative
utilization by pink salmon of the index reach in Indian River (one mile)
and Portage Creek (one-quarter mile) is further exemplified by
helicopter and foot survey counts of these reaches (Figures 37 and 38).
These figures show 43.3 percent of the peak helicopter pink salmo n count

percent in Portage Cr eek. From this it is rea sonab l e to assume that the
r urvey inde x reach of I ndian River provides a major porti on of the
spaw ning habitat in this stream whereas the i nd ex area of Portage Creek
is uti l ized primarily as a migratory corridor.
The 1984 pink salmon escapements to Indian River (RM 138 .6) and Portage
T
Cre€k (RM 148 .9} can be estimated because the peak survey counts were of
~a ch streams entire spawn i ng range. Co usen s et a l (1982} su11111arize

represent R0-90 percent of the spawning population. Therefore, a factor
of 1. 2 was used to adjust peak live and dead survey counts of Indian
River and Portage Creek. The peak survey count from Indian River was
further adjusted by the ratio of helicopter to foot surveys of the index
reach. Th 1 ~ adjustment increased the peak survey count by 47.7 per :ent.
This adjustment was not considered a reasonable procedure for Portage
Creek where peak surveys of the index reach were four days apart and the
fact that this reach i s used primarily as a migratory corridor and not
for spawning as in Indian River. Subject cu the above adjustments the
estimated escapement to Indian River wa~ about 16,100 f i sh an~ to
Portage Creek 3,100 fish. The escapement to Indian River i s based on a
"fair" survey coun 4; which was hampered by rain and poor light
conditions . Because of the fair survey conditions it is likel y the
actual escapement to Indian River was larger than calculated.
In 1984 the minimum escapement to all streams and sl oughs above RM 120
was 23,000 fish . This value is reported as mi nimum because peak s urveys
in all streams except Indian River (RM 138 .6) and Portage Creek (RM
148 .9) were foot surveys and cannot be expanded to r ep •·esent the
es capement of the entire s tream. Based on these data, approximately 80
percent of the pink salmon reaching Curry Sta t i on (RM 120) are milling
fish. By extention of this method approxi mately 85 percent of the pin k
s al~on rea ch ing Talkeetna Station (RM 103 ) were mill i ng fi s h.

3.1.4 Chum Salmon
Chum salmon are a major target species in the combined Upper Cook Inlet
drift and set gi 11 net fishery. Host of the connerci a l harvest is
Susitna River fish (AOF&G, 1982). The suspected contribution is in the
range of 50 JJercent (Barrett et al, 1984). Within the Susitna River
system there are a minimum 45 chum salmon spawning populations (AOF&G,
1982). The principle spawning areas are in the Talkeetna River
subdrainage (Barrett et al, "1984).
The minimum chum salmon escapements to the Susitna River have been
reported for the last three years at 282,700 fish (1981), 458,200 fish
(1982) and 276,600 fish (1983) (Barrett et al, 1984). These estimates
only reflect the escapements to the Yentna River (RH 28) and RH 80 near
the George Parks Highway bridge . In 1984, the minimum chum salmon
escapement was about 812,700 fish based on a Petersen estimate derived
from a first year tagging operation at RH 22 (Section 3.1 .4.1 .1).
The following subsections of this report present the results of 1984,
chum salmon studies by lower and middle Susitna River reaches.
3.1.4.1 Lower Reach
3.1.4.1.1 Main Channel Escapement Monitoring
In 1984, chum salmon escapements were monitored in the lower Susitna
River reach at Flathorn (RM 22), Yentna (TRM 04) and Sunshine (RM 80)
stations . The estimated 1984 escapements were: 812,700 fish (Flathorn
Station), 26 ,500 fish (Yentna Station) and 765,000 fish (Sunshine
-111-
Station) (Tables 34 and 19 and Figure 39). These -estimates were
calculated by the Petersen method with exception that the Yentna Station
escapement was determined by SSS counters. The confidence limits
associated with the Petersen estimates are in Table 34.

A comparison of the total estimated chum salmon escapement
for the Susitna River drainage to the estimated TRM 04, RM
80, 103 and 120 escapements, 1984.
escapement to this creek was 500 fish in 1963 (ADF&G, 1982). For
practical purposes the chum salmon escapement estimate to Flathorn
Station can be considered an estimate of the entire Susitna River
escapement co nsidering the minimal spawning below RM 22.
The comparison of the chum salmon escapements for the three lower river
monitoring stations in Figure 39 illustrates the distribution of the
Susitna River escapement. About 97 percent of the total escapement was
to the Yentna River (RM ~8) and RM 80. The Yentna River portion was 2.6
-113-
l
percent and for RM 80, 94.1 percent. Around three percent of the
Susitna River chum esc apement was destine to spawning habitats in the
lower reach mainstem and tributaries below RM 80 excluding the Yentna
River.
Chum salmon catches in the fishwheels operate d at Flathorn (RM 22),
Yentna (TRM 04) and Sunshine (RM 80) stati ons totaled 7,519 fish, 1,431
fish and 56,681 fish respect i vely or about 1 percent, 5 percent and 7
percent of the respective estimated 1984 escapements to these stations .
These fishwneel catches provide the basis for determining escapement
timi ng (Appendix 2 and Figures 40 and 41). At Fl athorn Station chum
salmon were abundant in the mainstem for 41 days. The migration began
in the ~ast channel at Flathorn Stat ion on J uly 18, reached a midpoint
on July 25 and ended on August 25. The respective dates for the west
channel were July 18, July 29 and August 28. Upstream 10 miles at
Yentna Station in the Yentna River (RM 28) the chum salmon migration
occurred over 42 days. The onset began on July 18, midpoint on August 1
and the end was on August 29 . At Sunshine Station, 58 miles above
Flathorn Station, the migration was shorter in duration lasting 27 days .
The migration therP. began on July 23, reached a midpoint on August 4 and
ended on August 19.
The 1984 migrational r ates of chum salmon in the lower river reach are
presen ~ed in Appendi x 2 and summarized in Figure 42. The data are based
on tagged fish recoveries between mainstem Yentna and Susitna rivers
stations . Chum salmon tagged at Flathorn Station (RM 22) generally

more in the lower sub-river reach between Flathorn Station and the
Yentna River {RM 28) than in the sub reach between the Yentna River and

days traveled computed at 2.5 mpd (Flathorn to Yentna stations) and 4.5
mpd (Flathorn to Sunshine stations).
In 1984 chum salmon migrations in the lower river reach fluctuated at
least twice in season probably due to high flows {Figures 40 and 41).
For example the highest river flows from mid July to mid August in the
Yentna and Susitna rivers occurred on July 27 and 28 {USGS, provisional
dataL On these same dates, there was a s harp drop in chum salmon
catches in the fishwheels operated at Flathorn (RM 22), Yentna (TRM 04 )

about 17 percent of the escapement . Most (87%) of the fish in the west
channel migrated along the right bank. In the Yentna River about 57
percent of the chum salmon passed Yentna Station (TRM 04) along the
south bank as indicated by fishwheel catcHes. The same trend was also
observed with the SSS counters . About 60 percent of the chum salmon
counts at Yentna Station were registered by the south bank sonar

Chum salmon released at Flathorn Station {RM 22) with numbered tags were
recaptured in the Yentna River {RM 28) at Yentna Station {TRM 04) and at
Sunshine Station (RM 80) and above at RM 103 and 120 (Table 35 and
Figure 44). Based on the recapture information about 95 percent of the
chum salmon that entered the Yentna River migrated in the east channel
at Flathorn Station. The remaining five percent, passed Flathorn
Station in the west channel. The east channel at Flathorn Station was
also favored by chum salmon reaching RM 80 and above. The east channel
passed about 83 percent of these fish and the west channel, 17 percent.
Chum sa 1 mon escapements were samp 1 ed for age, 1 ength ( FL) and sex
composition at Flathorn (RM 22), Yentna (TRM 04) and Sunshine (RM 80)
stations in 1984. The results indicate that nearly oll (99.2-99.9 ~) the
chum salmon returning to these stations were three, four and five year
old fish (Figure 45 and Table 36). Most prevalent were four year olds,
accounting for 73.9 percent, 69.2 percent and 75.7 percent of the
respective escapements to Flathorn , Yentna and Sunshine stations. All
adult chum salmon returning to these stations in 1984 had migrated to
sea as juveniles in their first year of life based on scale analysis .
The average chum salmon lengths at Flathorn, Yentna and Sunshine
stations in 1984 was 585 mm, 584 mm and 594 mm, respectively (Table 37
and Appendix 5). At all stations male chum salmon averaged between 11
and 20 mm longer than the f emales. Expectedly, the larger length fish
were generally in the older age classes (Table 37). In 1984 there were
more female than male chum salmon in the lower river reach except at
Yentna Station (Table 38). The male to female escapement ratios were
1.1:1 (Flathorn Station). 0.7:1 (Ye ntna Station) and 1.1:1 (Sunshine
Station).

In 1984 chum salmon escapements were monitored in the mainstem of the
Susitna River middle reach at Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM 120)
stations. The estimated escapement reaching Talkeetna Station was
98,200 fish and for Curry Station, 49,300 fish (Table 34). Both
estimates were derived by the Petersen method. The 95 percent
confidence limits of these estimates are 94,500 through 102,300 fish and
46,400 through 52,600 fish respectively.

The majority of the 1984, Sus i tna River chum salmon escapement was
produced in the lower river reach and most of the escapement that
entered the middle reach were mi 11 i ng fish that spawned in the 1 ower
reach. As indicated in Figure 39 about 12 percent of the escapement
migrating past Flathorn Station (RM 22) reached Talkeetna Station (RM
103) and 13 percent of the escapement passing Sunshine Station (RM 80)
were Talkeetna Station bound fish. Comparatively around six percent of
the escapement migrating past Flathorn and Sunshine stations reached
Curry Station (RM 120) in 1984 . In the middle river reach an estimated
26,060 chum salmon spawned in sloughs (14,634 fish), streams (7 ,628
fish) and mainstem (3,798 fish) habi~ats {Section 3.1.4.2.2). Based on
these figures about 75 perce,nt of the chum salmon escapement to
Talkeetna Station and 45 percent of the Curry Station escapement were
milling fish that spawned below these stations mainly in the lower river
reach.
Chum salmon catches in the fishwheels at Talkeetna Station {RM 103)
totaled 12,749 fish and at Curry Station {RM 120), 4,228 fish {Table 6).
These catches represent about 13 and 9 percents of the respective,
stations escapements.
In 1984 chum sa1mon migrated in the Susitna River mainstem over a five
to six week period based on fishwheel catches at Talkeetna (RM 103) and
Curry {RM 120) stations {Appendix 2). At Ta "ikeetna Station, the
migration began on July 25, reached a midpoint on August 5 and ended on
August 15. Seventeen miles upstream at Curry Station the respective
dates were July 28, August 5 and August 21.
-125-
Chum salmon migrational rates based on tag r ecoveries in the lower and
middle river reaches in 1984 are presented in Appendix 2 and summarized
in Figure 42 . Chum salmon tagged at Sunshine Station (RM 80) in the
lower river reached Talkeetna Stati on (RM 103) generally in four to five
days and Curry Station (RM 120) in six days. Travel time between
Talkeetna and Curry stations usually took two days . Comparing the
migration rates between stations using the median number of days
traveled, chum salmon averaged speeds of 5.8 mpd (Sunshine to Talkeetna
stations), 6.7 mpd (Sunshine to Curry stations) and 8.5 mpd (Talkeetna
to Curry stations). Chum salmon migrated faster or milled less the
further they migrated upstream ev i dent by the travel speeds above.
In 1984, chum salmon were about equally dtstributed between the east and
west banks at Talkeetna Station (RM 103) as determined from fishwheel
catches (Appendix 2). The east and west bank fishwhe~ls respectively
caught 46 and 54 percent of the station catch. At Curry Station (RM
120) chum salmon were more plentiful along the west ban k than the east
ban k at that location (Appendix 2). The east bank fishwheel caught 75
percent of the station catch and the west bank fishwheel caught the
remaining 25 percent.
Overall, chum salmon fishwheel catches at Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry
(RM 120) stations were normally distributed through the 1984 migration
period (Figure 46). The exception occurred late in the first week and
early in the second week of August at both stat i ons. At TalkeetrA and
Curry stations fishwheel catch rates generally rose sharply between the
third week of J uly and the midpoint of the first week of August and then

declined through the balance of the migration period except for about
two days of strong catches late in the second week of August.
Comparatively, river flows at Gold Creek (RM 137) during the chum salmon
migration generally decreased an average of 900 cf! daily during the
first half of the migration (7/25-8/5) and then rose about 3,000 cfs
over the next four days (8/6-B/10) and then declined about 340 cfs daily
through the second half of the migration period (8/10-21) (Figure 8).
The sm~ll surge in fishwheel catches recorded late in the second week of
August at Talkeetna and Curry stations may be related to the ri se in
river flow that occurred a few days earlier. Chum salmon mig:ating to
Talkeetna and Curry stations likely slowed their travel speed at the
initial rise in river discharge and then excellerated their travel speed
after the peak rise. Other studies support this conclusion. For
example radio telemetry work in 1981 and 1982 in the same river reach
indicate chum salmon typically respond to high water flows by reducing
their migration speeds (ADF&G, 1981 and ADF&G, 1982).
Chum salmon migrating off the east and west banks at Talkeet~a Station
(RM 103) displayed differential behavior in respect to destination and
crossover as determined from 243 tagged numbered, chum salmon released
at Talkeetna Station and recaptured at Curry Station (RM 120) (Table
39). The majority, 76 percent, of the Curry St~tion chum salmon
escapement were fish that passed Talkeetn ~ Station along the east side
of the river (Table 39). The remainder, 24 percent, were west bank
migrating fish at RM 103. With respect to crossover, a higher
percentage of the east bank than west bank migrating fish at Talkeetna

Station that reached Curry Station had switched banks (Table 39). The
respective levels were 24 and 16 percents.
A representative age, length (FL) and sex sample was collected from
middle river chum salmon escapements to Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM
120) stations in 1984. The escapements to both stations were comprised
of three to six year old fish (Table 36 and Figure 45). The majority
(69-71~) of the fish wer£: fc;,r year olds followed by five year olds
(17-23t ). All the chum salmon reaching Talkeetna and Curry stations in
1984 had migrated to sea as juveniles in their first year of life. Chum
salmon lengths at Talk~etna Station 1n 1984 averaged 8 mm longer than at
Curry Station {Appendix Figures 5-19 and 5-20). The respectiv~ length
avP.rages were 605 mm and 597 1m1. As expected, the longest lengths were
represented in the older age classes. Overall males averaged 12 mm more
length than the females at both stations. Also male chum salmon were
more abundant than females (Table 38). The male to female ratio at
Tal keetna Station was 1.4:1 and at Curry Station 2.0:1.

3.1 .4.2.2 Spawning Ground Surveys
3.1 .4.2.2 .1 Mainstem
In 1984, 36 mainstem chum salmon spawning areas were identified in the
Susitna River middle reach (Figure 47). Nine sites were found
downstream of Curry Station (RM 120) and 27 upstream.
The earliest date chum salmon were observed spJwning in the mainstem 'was
on September 1 and the latest on September 29, 1984 (Appendix 6). The
peak spawning likely occurred in the first and second weeks of August
based on peak, live fish counts. However, spawning may have peaked as
much as a week earlier. Due to the turbid, ~'instem conditions through
the month of August in 1984, survey visibility was 'poor'. This
essentially prevented documentation of earlier spawning, if present.
The peak cou~t of live chum salmon in the 36 mainstem spawning areas in
1984 totaled 1,266 fish. Assuming this count represents about a third
of the total population, approximately 3,800 fish spawned in the middle
mainstem Susitna River reach in 1984. The basis for expanding the peak
count by a factor of 3.0 is based on information in report section
3.1 .4 .2.2.3 and Barrett et al, (1984) that indicate a peak l i ve and dead
count of chum salmon represents about 50 percent of an actual escapement
under ideal survey conditions . Considering that there were 'poor',
mainstem survey conditions in late August near the peak spawning period
and dead fish were not counted due to the uncertainty of their origin,
an expansion factor of 3.0 was considered reasonable .

Sus i t na River mainstem middle
Of the estimated 3,800 chum salmon s pawning in the mainstem about 265
fish spawned below Talkeetna Station (RM 103) and 930 fish below Curry
Station (RM 120) in 1984 . In relation to the total estimated
escapements to t hese stations, about 3.6 percent of the Talkeetna
Station escapem ent spawned in the mainstem above P.M 103 and 5.8 percent
of the Curry Statior escapement spawned above RM 120 in the mainstem .
3.1.4.2.2.2 Streams
In 1984 , 11 streams were occupied by chum salmon in the middle river
reach (Appendix Table 6-2). Peak spawning ground counts of these
streams totaled 3,814 fish (Table 40). The majority , 9~ percent, of the
fish counted were in Indian River (RM 138.6) ,· Portage Creek (~i-1 148.9)
and Fourth of July Creek (RM 131.1) (Figure 48). Spawnir;g in these
streams extended from about the last week of July through the first week
of October. Peak spawning occurred in the second and third weeks of
August (Appendix Table 6-2).
The chum salmon spawning areas and upper limits of migration for the
occupied streams in 1984 are illustrated in Appendix 6. Spawning
occurred in the Susitna River interface of most of these streams. In
Jndian River (RM 138.6) chum salmon spawned in the first nine miles
with major spawning occurring in the first two miles. At Portage Creek
(RM 148 .9) chum salmon extended about 7.5 miles upst:ream to Thorofare
Creek {TRM 7.5). Spawning was discontinous in this reach. Chum salmon
entering Fourth of July Creek (RM 131.1) spawned from the Susitna River
interface to a point about 1.5 miles upstream. The major spawning was
i~ the Susitna River interface.

The genera 1 importance of the chum salmon s pawni·ng habitat ; n the 1 ower
reach, including the mouth, of Indian River (RM 138.6} and Portage Creek
(RM 148.9} can be determined by comparing escapement counts within sub
reaches (Appendix Table 6-2}. As illustrated in Figures 49 and 50
relatively high counts of live chum were recorded by ground and
helicopter surveys in the index reach of these streams through the
entire spawning period . About 45 percent of the peak helicopter chum
salmon count was recorded in the first one mile reach of Indian River,
and 21 percent o~ the peak count of Portage Creek was 1 ogged in the
first one-quarter mi le. These percentages indicate that both lower
reaches or specifically the first one mile of Indian River and the first
one-quarter mile of Portage Creek were major chum salmon spawning areas
in 1984 .

was approximately 7,628 fish. This estimate was determined by expanding
the total peak count by a 2.0 facto r which assumes a peak count
represents 50 percent of the actual escapement {Table 40) (Cousens et
al, 1982}.
A 11 the chum salmon spawning in middle reach streams occurred above
Talkeetna Station (RM 103) and 98 percent occurred above Curry Station
(RM 120) in 1984 (Table 40). Comparing the estimated chum salmon
escapement for middle reach streams to the estimated mainstem escapement
at Talkeetna and Curry stations it can be determined that about 8
percent (7 ,628) of the escapement reaching Talkeetna Station and 15
percent (7,482 fish) of the Curry Station escapement were stream
s pawning fish.

3.1.4.2.2.3.1 Observation Life
In 1984, 1,019 chum salmon were released with large numbered Petersen
disc tags at Curry Station (RM 120) to determine the observation life of
fish entering sloughs A' (RM 124.6), SA {RM 125.1) and 11 (RM 135.3) and
secondarily, the length a·f time chum salmon spent between being tag9ed
at Curry Station and slough · entrance. A total of 128 of these marked
chum salmon entered the three sloughs (Figure 51). The mean average
time spent by these fish from being tagged and slough entrance was 19
days (Figure 51) .. The averages ranged from 14.1 days for Slough A' fish
to 20.4 days for Slough 11 fish.

Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM 120) stations at a average speed of S.S
mpd (Section 3.1.4.2.1). Considering this travel speed it is probable
that the majority of the average 19 days chum salmon spent between Curry
Station and entering sloughs A• (RM 124.6), SA (RM 125.1) and 11 (RM
135.3) was time ripening in the Susitna River mainstem . Further
evidence of a several week ripening period can be found by comparing the
peak chum salmon fishwheel catches at Talkeetna and Curry stations with
peak chum salmon live counts in sloughs upstream (Figure 46 and Appendix
Tab 1 e 6-3) • A severa 1 week 1 a'g occurred between the time chum sa 1 mon
passed these tagging stations and fish entered sloughs SA, 11 and 21
. (Section 3.1.4 .2.1). Also in 19S4, numerous chum salmon were observed
spawning in habitats miles downstream of where they were tagged which
provides direct evidence that not all chum salmon migrate directly
to their spawning area (Appendix Table 6-1). Milling or straying
upstream of a spawning area is probably a secondary response to fish
using the mainstem for ripening more than a by-product of fish seeking
out a new spawning habitat or not initially recognizing a natal area.
Chum salmon occupying sloughs A' (RM 124.6), SA (RM 125.1) and 11 (RM
13.5.3) 'i n 19S4 had an average observation life of 6.S days (F i gure 52).
The lowest average observation life was at Slough 11 (6 .1 days) and the
highest at Slough SA (7.9 days).
The observation life estimates identified above reflect the average
number of days individual chum salmon occupied three sloughs of the
middle Susitna River reach in 19S4. These estimates do not, however,
represent the spawning life of chum salmon in these sloughs because not

all monitored fish initiated spawning. Some of the chum salmon which
entered these sloughs spawned elsewhere. At least three of the 131 chum
salmon monitored at sloughs A' (RM 124.6), SA (RM 125.1) and 11 (RM
135.3) entered more than one slough. For example, one chum salmon
entet•ed Slough SA, remained there for about a week and then left and
four days later entered Slough 11 where it spawned over a period of 11
days. About 1S percent of the chum salmon monitored for observation
life were only located once in the three study sloughs and because these
fish were never relocated or observed spawning, many were probably using
these sloughs for milling or ripening purposes only. An unknown
percentage of the fish observed but once, however, may have been removed
by predation, namely by bears which c011100nly fed at these sloughs.
Overall, 1S .S percent {mean average) of the monitored fish at sloughs
A', SA, and 11 did not initiate spawning in the slough of first recorded
entry. The lowest percentage (14.3S) occurred at Slough A and the
highest (25.3S) was recorded at slough 11 (Table 41).
The spawning distribution of chum salmon monitored for observation life
in sloughs SA {RM 125.1) and 11 (RM 135.3) is outlined in Table 41. The
distribution figures indicate that for these sloughs chum salmon
spawning in 19S4 was relatively light at the c~nfluence. The lower
slough reaches were used more for spawning than the upper slough
reaches. In comparison, sockeye salmon spawned more in the upper areas
of these sloughs than in the lower areas (Section 3.1.2.2.2.2.3).

3.1.4.2.2.3.2 Escapement Surveys
In 1984, 29 s loughs in the middle river reach contained adult chum
salmon (Appendi x Tab le 6-3). Twenty seven of thes e were spawning areas .
Sloughs 14 (RM 135 .9) and 15 (RM 137.2) were cons i dered milling areas
due to the absence of observed spawning activity. The 100 chum salmon
that milled in Slough 15 were probably Indian River (RM 13S.6) destine
fish due to the early date (SI SIS4} of the observation and the pro ximity of
Slough 15 and Indian River . The s i ngle chum salmon recorded in Slough 14 was
probably a stray from a nearby stream, mainstem or slough spawning area .

The total peak spawning count of 7,556 chum salmon to middle reach
sloughs i n 1984 represents only an escapement indf · (Table 42) (Cousens
et a 1 • 1984). The tota 1 escapement to · s 1 oaghs f 1J r the middle river
reach in 1984 ·is estimated 14,634 f ish ba~ed on observation life and
survey data in Table 43 and Appendix 6. Comparatively. this estimate is
about 15 and 30 percents respectively of the estimated escapements to
Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry (RM 120) stations.
3.1.4.2.2.3.3 Egg Retention
In 1984. 315 female chum salmon were examined for egg retention at 11
sloughs in the middle Susitna River reach (Table 44). The highest
retentions were found in sloughs 11 (RM 135 .3) and 21 (RM 141.1). These
same sloughs al:»o supported the highest escapements (Table 43). Most
~76.8~) of the female chum salmon had completely spawned in the 11
sloughs sampled (Figure 54). The average and median egg retention was
463 and 1 eggs respectively.

3.1.5 Coho Salmon
The Susitna River is the largest single coho salmon producing system in
Upper Cook Inlet, contributing annually about 50 percent of the
conmercial harvest in this district (AOF&G, 1982 and Barrett, 1983).
Susitna River coho salmon also contribute to a growing recreational
fishery (Mills, 1983). Within the Susitna River drainage there are a
minimum, 25 spawning popula·tions (ADF&G, 1982 and ADF&G, 1983). The
majority spawn in the lower Susitna River re'lch below RM 80 (ADF&Ii,
1982).
The minimum Susitna River escapements for the three previous years have
been 37,000 fish (1981), 80 ,000 fish (1982} and 24,100 fish (1983)
(Barrett et al, 1984). These minimum estimates do not include
escapements to systeas below RM 80 except the Yentna River (RM 28}. The
minimum 1984 coho salmon escapement based on a Petersen tag and
recapture estimate at RM 22 was 190,100 fish (Section 3.1 .5.1 .1).

A ·comparison of the total estimated coho salmon
escapement for the Susitna River drainage to the
estimated TRM 04, RM 80, 103 and 120 escapements, 1984 .
The minimum coho salmon escapement into the Susitna River drainage was
190,100 fish in 1984 as defined by the estimated escapement to RM 22.
Below RM 22, only Fish (RM 7.0) and Alexander (RM 9.8) creeks drainages
are known to s upport coho salmon spawning populat ions (ADF&G , 1982).
The coho salmon escapements to these drainages are not included in the
minimum Susitna River escapement. The historic peak survey counts were
380 fish i n Re d Shirt Creek (1952) (Fish Creek drainage) and 2,000 f ish
i n Ale xa nder Creek (1964) (ADF&G, 1982).
The geographic distribution of coho sa lmon i n the lower Susitna River
-151-
reach above RM 22, based on 1984 escapement mon;toring at Flathorn (RM
22), Yentna (TRM 04) and Sunshine (RM 80) stations, is illustrated in
Figure 55 . As shown, escapements to Yentna and Sunshine stations
account for about 60 percent of the escapement to RM 22. The remaining
40 percent of the escapement which reached RM 22 spawned in the Susitna
River reach below RM 80 excluding the Yentna River.
The coho salmon migrational timing at Flathorn (RM 22), Yentna (TRM 04)
and Sunshine (RM 80) stations was determined from 1984 station fishwheel
catches (Figures 56 and 57, and Appendix 2). The migration at Flathorn ..
Station . extended for approximately five weeks, from July 18 to August
21. The migration midpoint occurred on July 29 in the east channel and
on July 25 in the west channel. There is little difference between east
channel and west channel coho salmon passage timing at RM 22, based on
fishwheel catches . In the Yentna River (RM 28) at Yentna Station the
coho salmon migration covered approximately a one mont.h period, from
July 21 to August 22. The migration midpoint was on August 3. At
Sunshine Station coho salmon were generally present 30 days, from July
29 to August 29. The migration midpoint was August 11 (F i gure 57).
Coho salmon migratory distributions at Flathorn (RM 22), Yentna (TRM 04)
and Sunshine (RM 80) stations were based on 1984 station fishwheel
catches (Table 6 and Appendix 2). At RM 22 the Susitna River is divided
into two channels by a large island complex. Fishwheels were deployed
off both mainland banks and off each side of the largest island . Each
wheel was individually identified by channel (east or west) and bank
(right or left) (Appendix Figure 1-1). Individual fishwheel catches,

Mean hourly and cumulative percent fishwheel catch of
coho salmon by two day periods at Sunsh i ne Station , 1984.
adjusted by fishwheel catch per unit effort, were as follows: 17 .6
percent right east channel, 37.5 percent left east channel, 34 .8 percent
right east channel and 10 .1 percent left west channel. The majority of
the coho salmon (55.1 percent) migrated in the east channel at RM 22.
These data also indicate a strong preference by coho salmon to migrate
midriver at this s i te. The two mi driver fishwheels i ntercepted a
combined 72.3 percent of the total catch. In the Yentna River (RM 28)
at Yentna Station coho salmon migrated primarily (81.4 percent) along
the south bank, based on fi s hwheel catches . At Sunsh i ne Station a total
of 57.9 percent of the fi s hwheel catch were i ntercepted in the two eas t
bank wheels and 42.1 percent in the two west bank whe £'1s. These
percentages indicate coho salmon were migrating primarily along thP. ea s t

The Susitna River channel at Flathorn Station (RM 22), most utilized by
coho salmon reaching Yentna (TRM 04) station and RM 80 and above in 1984
was detennined from tag recoveries of Flathorn Station tagged fish
(Table 46 and Figure 58). Based on the tag recovery data about 67
percent of the coho salmon reach i ng Yentna Station migrated in the ea st
channel at RM 22. The remaining 33 percent migrated i n the west
channel. Coho salmon reaching RM 80 and above also passed RM 22
predominately (90 percent) in the east channel.

on the median d-=\yS traveled, were 1.0 mpd and 2-3 mpd, respectively.
The slower coho salmon travel rate between Flathorn and Yentna stations
was probably due to milling activity in the vicinity of the Susitna and
Yentna (RM 28) rivers confluence.
Age, length (FL ) and sex composition information was collected from the
coho salmon escap~ents reaching Flathorn (RM 22), Yentna (TRM 04) and
Sunshine (RM 80} stations in 1984. The majority of the coho salmon
reaching all three stations were four year old fish representing 64.4,
70.0 and 64.4 percents of the escapements, respectively (Table 47 ·and
Figure 60). Three year o ld fish were the second most abundant at all
three sites. A total of 34.3, 27.9 and 34.2 ~erce nts of the coho salmon
returning to Fla t horn, Yentna and Sunshine stations, respectively, had
previously migrated to the ocean (smolted) in their third year of life.
The mean length of "the coho salmon escapement to Flathorn, Yentna and
Sunshine stations was 543 1m1, 557 1m1 and 546 1m1, respectively (Table
48). The slightly longer average length recorded at Yentna Station was
due to a higher percentage of four year old fish returning there than at
other stations. At Flathorn and Ye ntna stations males were generally
larger than females. At Sunshine Station the male and female average
1 engths were the same. The coho sa 1 mon escapement ma 1 e to fema 1 e sex
ratios at Flathorn, Yentna and Sunshine stations were 1.4:1, 0.8:1 and
1.?.:1, respectively (Table 49). Generally, males were more abundant
than females at Flathorn and Sunshine stations and fewer in number at
Yentna Station .

3.1.5.1.3 Fecundity
Coho salmon fecundities were detennined from 22 samples collected at
Sunshine Station (RM 80) in 1984. All samples were collected on Aug~st
22. The average fecundity of the 22 samples was 2,964 eggs per female
and ranged from 1,394 to 3,984 eggs (Table 50). The fecundity samples
-161-
were collected prior to the eggs reaching full maturation and they
became fragile and difficult to count after freezing and thawing. These
difficult1es introduced an unknown error component in the analysis .

The 1984 Susitna River coho salmon mean fecundity predicted from a mean
length of 546 mm recorded for 485 females measured at Sunshine Station
(RM 80) was 2,800 eggs. This estimate assumes that coho salmon stocks
sampled on August 22 were mixed and repre sentative of the entire
escapement .
Susitna River coho salmon fecundities may be greater than reported for
other Alaskan and Canaoian stocks. Hart (1973} reports the mean
fecundity of 550 mm coho salmon at 2,500 eggs. The fecundity of similar
sized Susitna River coho salmon, based on regression analysis, would be
2,860 eggs or 360 more than reported by Hart. These data were derived
from regressions of length and weight to fecundity which had respective
correlation coefficients (r2) of 0.4 and 0.5 indicating only a 'fair '
r e lationship between the variables (Figure 61}.

3.1.5.2.1 Main Channel Escapement Monitoring
The 1984 coho salmon escapement!; to Talkeetna {RM 103) and Curry {RM
120) stations were quantified using the Petersen tag and recapture
method. About 11,800 coho salmon migrated to Talkeetna Station by this
method. The 95 percent confidence interval assoc i ated with this
estimate is 10,500 to 13,600 fish. Seventeen miles upriver, the
estimated escapement to Curry Station was 2,200 fish. This estimate had
a 95 percent confidence interval of 1,500 to 3,700 fish {Table 45).
The 1984 coho salmon migrations reaching Talkeetna {RM 103) and Curry
{RM 120) stations comprised 6.2 and 1.2 percents, respectively, of the
minimum Susitna River escapement as recorded at RM 22 (Figurl.! 55).
Based on the estimated number ~f coho salmon spawning above RM 103 and
RM 120 about 75 and 45 percents of the Talkeetna and Curry stations coho
salmon escapement returned downstream to spawn below the respective
sites (Section 3.1.5.2.2.2).
Based on fishwheel catches coho salmon were genet·ally abundant at
Talkeetna Station (RM 103) in 1984 about four weeks, from July 31 to
August 29 (Appendix Table 2-14). The migration reached a midpoint on
August 12. At Curry Station (RM 120) coho salmon were present also
about four weeks, from August 1 to August 28. The migration median was
August 11.

Fishwheel interceptions at Talkeetna (RM 103) and Curry {RM 120)
stations were used to detenm i ne the 1984 coho salmon migrational
characteristics at these sites (Figure 62). A total of 1.526 coho
salmon were captured by fishwheels at Talkeetna Station. The west bank
fishwheels accounted for 79.8 percent of the catch indicating a strong
preference by coho salmon to migrate along this bank at RM 103. At
Curry Station a total of 350 coho salmon were intercepted. The west and
east bank fishwheels intercepted 53.3 and 46.7 percents of the station
catch indicating a slight preference by coho salmon to west bank
migration at RM 120.
A total of 1.034 coho salmon were marked with Floy FT-4 spaghetti tags
at Talkeetna Station (RM 103} in 1984 (Table 6). At Curry Station {RH
120). only six Talkeetna tagged fish were recovered. an insufficient
number to evaluate differential milling or bank crossover of coho salmon
stocks migrating between RM 103 and RM 120.
Coho salmon migrational rates were based on tag recoveries in the lower
and middle Susitna River reaches in 1984 (Appendix Table 2 and Figure
59). Coho salmon traveled about eight days between Sunshine (RM 80) and
Talkeetna {RM 103) stations and about six days between Talkeetna and
Curry (RM 120} stations . The respective migrational speeds were 2.9 mpd
and 2.8 mpd. The 40 mile distancP betwee~ Sunshine and Curry statio~s
was· traveled by coho salmon in an average 16 days which calculates to a
travel sp~ed of 2.5 mpd.

Age, length (Fl) and sex data were collected from a sample of the cohc
salmon escapements reachi ng Ta 1 keetna ( RM 103} and Curry (RH 120 ',
stations i n 1984. Based on this information, the escapements to bot''
Talkeetna and Curry stations were primarily four year old fish, 67.3 and
52 .4 percents, respectively (Table 47). The relati\'ely low percentage
of four y ~ar old fish recorded at Curry Station as compared to Talkeetra
Station was probably due to milling activity among coho salmon stocks l .t
RM 103. A total of 67.~ percent and 51.8 percents of the coho salmon
escapement at Talkeetna and Curry stations, respectively, migrated ·:o
the ocean (smolted} in their third year of life. The average C01 \0
salmon lengths recorded at Talkeetna and Curry stations were 559 mm a'd
531 nn (Taole 48). The smaller average coho salmon length at Cur~
Station is du e to a larger percentage of three year old fish at th i s
station. The ceho salmon male to female sex ratios at Talkeetna a nd
Curry sti.:tions were both 1.1:1. Generally, males were more abunda11t
than females at both stations (Table 49).
3.1.5.2.2 Spawning Ground Surveys
3.1 .5.2.2.1 Mainstem
In 1984 the Susitna River mainstem middle reach was repetitivell'
surveyed between July 21 and October 14 for salmon spawning using
helicopter and waterbourne craft (Appendix Table 6-1 ). On August 24,
two coho salmon were observed spawning off the Susitna River west bank
at RH 131.5 (Appendix Figure 6-16). This was the only coho salmon
spawning location identifi~d in the mainstem middle reach.

l
3.1.5.2.2.2 Sloughs and Streams
A total of 37 sloughs and 25 streams between RM 98.6 and 161.0 were
surveyed in 1984 to determine the distribution of coho salmon in this
river reach (Appendix Tables 6-2 and 6-3). These surveys were conducted
from July 21 to October 14. Coho salmon were observed in three of the
37 sloughs surveyed. ihe fish observed in sloughs Moose (RM 123.5), 11
(RM 135.3) and 15 (RM 137.2) were considered milling not spawning fish
based on single sightings, no observed carcasses and no observations of
spawning activity.
Coho salmon were observed in 10 of 25 middle Susitna River reach streams
surveyed in 1984 (Appendix Table 6-2). These surveys, like the slough
surveys, were conducted from July 21 to October 14. The peak live and
dead coho salmon survey count of the 10 streams was 1,434 fish. Based
on peak survey counts, the majority (70.1 percent) of the coho salmon in
this river reach were in Indian River (RM 138.6), Whiskers Creek (RM
101.4) and Chase Creek (RM 106.9) (Table 51 and Figure 63). Stream
surveys were one of two types, foot or helicopter surveys . Foot surveys
were conducted for a pre-determined reach of each stream. The counts
from these surveys were used as an index of relative abundance and do
not reflect the actual escapement to each stream. Stream helicopter
surveys were conducted for the entire distance known to support salmon
spawning. These counts may be adjusted for the stream 1 ife of a
particular species and the helicopter survey efficiency. Once these
adjustments have been .performed an estimate of the total escapement to a
particular stream is possible.

(RM 138.6) (RM 10 1.4) (RN 106.9)
Percent distribution of coho salmo n to the three primary
spawning streams above RM 98 .6.
-169-
In 1984 the coho salmon distribution within select streams between RM
98.6 and 161.0 was determined from helicopter surveys of a streams known
salmon spawning reach (Appendix 6). Based on these helicopter surveys
the upper limit of migration in Whiskers Creek {RM 101.4), Chase Creek
(RM 106.9) and Indian River (RM 138.6) was 0.9 miles, 1.1 miles and 8 .7
miles, respectively. Coho s almon in Whiskers Creek spawned
intermittently to the upper limit of their migration (0.9 miles). The
most i mportant spawning area observed in Whiskers Creek was the
interface with the Susitna Rive r. In Chase Creek coho salmon spawning
occurred discountinuosly to the upper migration limit (1.1 miles ). Coho
salmon spawned throughout the Indian River from the Susitna River
interface to 8.1 miles upstream. Two major co ho salmo n spawning reaches
were located in Indian Rher from TR M 2. 7 to 5.3 and from TRM 7.6 to
8.1. Major coho salmon spawning was also observed in a small tributary
that feeds into Indian River at approximately TRM 8.1.
The relative importance to coho salmon spawning in the lower reaches of
Indi an River (RM 138.6) and Portage Creek (RM 148.9) can be determ i ned
by helicopter surveys (Figures 64 and 65). The peak helicopter survey
after September 1 of the lower reach of Indian River (1.0 mile } and
Portage Creek (0.25 mile) compared to the peak survey of the entire
drainages after September 1 indicate about 14 and 1 percents of the
respective streams escapement spawn in the lower reaches. Prior t o
September 1 (August 19) a large movement of coho salmon into the Portage
Creek i ndex area was recorded. This mo~ement coincides with an increase
in Susitna River discharges from about 14,000 cfs on August 15 to 32,000
cfs on August 28 (Figure 8). These milling fish had apparently returned

to the Susitna River--Portage Creek confluence area by September 1 when
the Susitna River discharge had dropped to about 13,000 cfs .
The minimum escapements of coho salmon which spawned in the middle
Susitna River reach above RM 120 was 1,200 fish in 1984. This estimate
was derived assuming that peak survey counts of coho salmon represent
approximately 50 percent of the escapement to each stream (Cousens et
al , 1984}. The estimate is reported as minimum because not all streams

Peak coho ~almon ground and helicopter survey counts of
Portage Creek in 1984 .
were surveyed in the i r enti rety. based on th i s estimate approximately
45 percent of the coho salmon escapement reaching Curry Station (RM 120)
(2,200 fish) did not spawn above RH 120. By e xtension of this method,
the minilll.lm escapement of coho salmon which s pawn ed above RH 103 was
2,900 fish. Therefore, approx imately 75 percent of the coho sa lmon
reaching RM 103 returned to spawn below Talkeetna Station (RM 103).

Based on the 1984 surveys of Whiskers Creek (RM 10 1.4 ), Chase Creek (RM
106.9) and Indian Rive r (RM 138.6) coho salmon i n streams occurred from
the third week of September to the second week of October (Appendi x
Table 6-2). The peak coho salmon spawning in streams based on these
surveys occurred dur ing the last week of September.

1.0 Introduction
The proposed hydroelectric project may impact the lower
Susitna River salmon spawning areas. Flow, water quality
and temperature changes may occur in the slough, side
channel, main channel, and stream habitats utilized by
spawning salmon. Information on the magnitude and timing of
salmon spawning in these habitats is necessary to assess
potential impacts and to plan appropriate mitigation
measures.
2.0 Objectives
1) Identify all salmon spawning areas i . main channel,
side channel, slough and stream habitats in the lower
Susitna River (RM 28.0-RM 98.6).
2) Identify the general habitat characteristics of those
areas utilized by ~pawning salmon.
Anadromo•Js fish species addressed in this report are:
Pacific Salmon
Chinook salmon
Sockeye salmon
Pink salmon
Chum salmon
Coho salmon

I 3.0 Methods
3.1 Mainstem and Slough Habitat
Aerial surveys were conducted weekly on the lower Susitna River (RM
28.0-RM 98.6) (Figure 1) from July 21 to October 17, 1984 to identify
sites utili!ed by spawning salmon (Plate 1). Potential spawning sites
were then s urveyed on foot to verify actual spawning activity.
Verification of spawning was done visually, observing redds (Plate 2)
and salmon spawning activity (Plate 3). To confirm the visual
observations, all sites were sampled using standard egg pump ing
equipment and methods (Plate 4) to determine the presence of salmon
eggs. Spawning areas were then mapped with the species, number of live
and dead salmon, number of redds and upwelling activity noterl. Complete
survey methods can be found in Section 2.2.1 of Barrett et al, 1985.
An aerial survey of the lower river (RH 26.0 to RH 96.0) was conducted
by R&M Consultants on March 18, 1983 (Coffin, 1983). During this
survey, open leads were delineated on 1:2000 blue line maps . No attempt
was made to distinquish between velocity leads and warm water leads .
This information served as an indicator to possible spawning areas.
3.2 Stream Habitat
Seventeen streams in the lower Susitna River reach (RM 28.0 to RM 98.6}
were surveyed in 1984 to provide information on the magnitude, timing
and distribution of chinook , sockeye, pink, ch~ and coho salmon
spawning in stream mouth reaches (Figure 1). The term interface reach

will be used throughout the reminder of th is report to describe the
reach from the stream mouth to one thi rd mi le up s tream. Survey efforts
were concentrated in the i nterface reach of each s tream to eva 1 uate
s pawning utilization of these habitats .
Streams i n the lower river reach genera l l y had lower gradients t han
those in the middle river reach . Lower grad i ent streams usually have
more backwater area t han those with a steep gradient {AOF&G , 1983a). At
each of the lower river stream interf ace reaches , habitat da t a
consisting of stream channel widths, depths and substrate composition
were collected at two main s tem discharges . In additi on to habitat data,
backwate r effects were al so a s sessed to determine effects of mainstem
discharge on interface reaches . Complete survey methods can be found in
Section 2.2 .1 of Barrett et al, 1985 .
4.0 Results and Discussion
4.1 Mainstem Habitat
The mainstem habitat is comprised of main channel and side channel

mainstem habitats. Determination of the physical and hydraulic
characteristics necessary to accurately define each habitat type was
beyond the scope of this study.
Survey conditions prior to late September were poor due to high water
a~d turbidity level s. As a result, surveys conducted prior to this time
may not have observed all spawn i ng act i vity that may have been present.
A flood in early September eliminated all sigr.-; of spawning prior to
that time. Lower water and turbidity levels in early to late fall
improved the survey conditions, increasing the number and accuracy of
spawning observations.
Surveys identified 13 mainstem salmon spawning sites in the lower river
reach (RM 28.0 to RM 98.6) in 1984 (Figure 2). Chum salmon were the
predominant species, utilizing 12 mainstem sites for spawning. Coho
salmon were observed spawning in only two mainstem sites. The other
three species of Pacific salmon were not observed spawning in mainstem
sites. Individual site descriptions and maps can be found in Appendix
A.
An estimate of the total spawning escapement uti li zing mainstem sites in
this reach can be determined by using procedures outlined in Barrett et
al, 1985. · By using the total live peak escapement counts, it is
estimated that 2,754 chum salmon (0.3% of the minimum estimated Susitna
River escapement) and 309 coho salmon (0.2% of the minimum estimated
Susitna River escapement) utilized mainstem spawning sites between PM
28.0 ~nd RM 98.6 during 1984.

Based on peak live counts, the three most important mainstem sites for
chum salmon (in descending order of importance) are : Trapper Creek side
channel (RM 92.0C-RM 94 .5L); Sunset side channel (RM 87.0R) and
collective ly the four sites in the mouth of the Chulitna River (RM
98 .0L). The rest of the mainstem sites contained less than 50 fish.
The most important mainstem site for coho salmon is the Trapper Creek
side cha nnel (RM 92.0C-~M 94 .5L ) followed by the Sunset side channel (RM
87. 5R).
Upwe 11 i ng, bank seepage or winter open 1 eads were observed in nine of
the sites. The predominant sites utilized by chum salmon and both sites
used by coho salmon all had associated upwelling/bank seepage. Closer
examination may find upwelling/bank seepage in all or some of the
remaining sites where it was not observed in 1984. Chum salmon
selecting upwelling areas in which to spawn was reinforced by the data.
4.2 Slough Habitat
Slough habitats can be divided into two types, upland sloughs and side
sloughs. The main difference between the two types is that the upstream
end of an upland slough does not connect with the mainstem even at high
mainstem discharges (Sautner et al, 1984). A feature that distinguishes
side slough habitat from side channel habitat is the side sloughs convey
clear water form small tributaries and/or upwelling groundwate1 in an
unbreached condition (Sautner et al, 1984). The reader should consult
the glossary for a comp l ete descr i ~tion cf slough habitats. The salmon
spawning sites located in this study all fall in the side slough
category and will all be referred to as slough habitats.
A300
Survey conditions encountered in slough surveys are identical to those
already described under mainstem habitat. As mainstem discharges fell
in late fall, survey conditions improved, increasing the number and
accuracy of spawning observations.
Salmon were obs erved spawning in six slough sites in the lower river
reach (RM 28.0 to RM 98.6) in 1984 (Figure 3). As was found with the
mainstem spawning sites, chum salmon were the predominant species
utiliz i ng sloughs for spawning. Of the 6 slough spawning sites, chum
salmon u s ed five while coho salmon used one. The other three species of
PacHi c sal mo n were not observed spawning i n s lough sites surveyed.
Individual site descri ptions and maps can be found in Appendix A.
It is estimated that 656 chum salmon (0. n of the min i n.Jm estimated
Susi tna River escapement) a,d 12 coho salmon ( 0 . 1~ of the mi nin.Jm
esti mated Susitna R'ver escapement) util i zed s lough spawning sites
between RM 28.0 and RM 98 .6 during 1984 . Procedures for these
calculations using peak live and dead counts can be found in Barrett et
al, 1985 .
Utilizing peak l i ve counts, the mo s t important s lough sites for chum
salmon (in descending o rder of importance) are: Cache Creek Slough (RM
96.0L) and Musher Slough (RM 95.21\~. The remaining three slough sites
utiliJed by chum salmon had less than fifty fish . The onl y slougn site
found to have spawning coho salmon was Rustic Wilderness Slough (RM
57.0R).

Upwe 11 i ng, bank seepage or winter open 1 eads were observed at four
sites. The most important chum salmon site had no upwelling observed.
This does not mean that upwelling is not present. Th i s site has a creek
associate\.1 with i t wh i ch might provide adequate flows and supplies of
dissolved oxygen in the absence of upwelling . As has been found in the
mainstem sites and previous studies, chum salmon appear to be selecting
upwelling areas for spawning sites.
4.3 Stream Habitat
Based on habitat observations of the interface reach the seventeen
streams surveyed fell into two general categories . The first category
had primarily silt-sand substrates wi th tann i n stained water. Lower
river streams in this category are: Fi sh Creek (RM 31.2); No Name Creek
(RM 31.7 ); Whitsol Creek (RM 35.2); Rolly Creek (RM 39.0); Grays Creek
(RM 59.5); and Rabideux (RM 83.1). The second category of streams had
substrates ranging from small gravels to cobbles and clear water. Lower
river streams in this category are: Willow Creek (RM 49.1); Little
Willow Creek (RM 50 .5); Kashwitna River (RM 61.0); Caswell Creek (RM
64.0); Sheep Creek (RM 66.1); Goose Creek (RM 72.0); Montana Creek (RM
77.0); Sunshine Creek (RM 85.1); Birch Creek (RM 89.2); Trapper Creek
{RM 91.5); and Cache Creek (RM 95.5). Site maps and descriptions of
each creek are in Appendix B.

The total peak survey count of chinook salmon in the eleven streams was
3,027 fish (Table 1). The majority were observed in Montana Creek
(76. 3~). The remaining 23. 7~ were distributed among the other ten
streams as listed in T~ble 1. These counts are not intended to
represent the total number of chinook salmon in these streams. Only the
first three quarter mile from the stream mouth was surveyed providing an
index count to relative abundance.
Based on survey observations, chinook salmon were generally abundant on
lower river streams in the third week of July. Chinook salmon were
observed in Montana Creek from July 23 to August 14 in 1984 with the
peak count occurring on July 23 (Appendix Table 0-1).
Chinook salmon were not observed spawning in lower river stream
interfaces in 1984 (Table 2). Previous data indicates that
rubble-cobble substrates are preferred for chinook spawning (AOF&G,
1983b). Habitat data collected in lower river stream interfaces
indicates that smaller substrates, primarily silt-sand or gravel-rubble
are prevalent in these areas (Appendix Table 8-1). Suitability data
also indicates that chinook salmon prefer velocities from 1.7 to 2.3
feet/second for spawning. Although velocity data was not collected in
lower river streams in 1984, it is the authors opinion that veloc1ties
in the interface areas of these streams are generally less than those
preferred by spawning chinook salmon. Chinook salmon were observed in
upper portions of many of these streams.

Seventeen streams in the lowe r Sus i tna river reach (RM 28.0 to 98.6)
were surveyed from July 2 1• to October 17 in 1984 (Appendix Table 0-1).
Of the seventeen streams surveyed, sockeye s almon were observed in
twelve streams (Table 3).
The total peak count of sockeye salmon in the twelve streams was 886
fish (Table 3). The majority were observed in Willow Creek (24.81),
Trapper Creek (22 .51) and in Birch Creek (19.61). The remaining 33.11
were distributed among the remaining nine streams as listed in Table 3 .
These counts are not intended to represent the total numbers of soc~eye
s almon in these streams . Only the first three quarter mile from the
stream mouth was surveyed providi ng an index count of re lati ve
abundance.
Based on survey observations, sockeye salmon were generally abundant in
lower river streams during the first three weeks of August (Table 3).
Sockeye salmon were observed in Willow Creek from August 6 to August 12
in 1984, with the peak survey count occurring on August 12 (Appendix
Table 0-1). In Trapper Creek, sockeye salmon we r e observed from July 28
to August 22, with the peak survey count occurring on August 15 . The
peak survey count in Bi rch Creek occurred on July 29 with observation
dates ranging from July 29 to August 23.

11 The index area surveyed was from the stream mouth to three quarter of
a mile upstream.
Habitat parameters (stream width, depth and s ub strate) were collected at
each of the stream interfaces where pink salmon spawning was observed .
Thest: data are presented in Appendix Table D-1. The findings indicate
that spawning pink salmon prefer gravel-rubble substrates. Each interface
reach where pink salmon spawning was observed had gravel-rubble
s ubstrates. Sites having silt-sand substrates were not observed being
used by pink salmon for spawning in 1984 (Appendix Table 8-1). This is
consistent with previous data for the Susitna River system (ADF&G,
1982).

The total peak count of chum salmon in the twelve streams was 1,505 fish
(Table 6). The majority were observed in Goose Creek (25. 5%), Willow
Creek (22.0%) and in Sheep Creek (12.0%). The remaining 40.5% were
distributed among the remaining nine streams as listed in Table 8.
These counts do not necessarily represent the tota 1 number of chum
salmon in these streams but an index count of relative abundance .
Based on survey observations, chum salmon were generally abundant in
lower river streams during the first three weeks in August in 1984
(T able 8). Chum salmon were observed in Goose Creek from July 27 to
A312
--------~---------------------
September 7, 1984 with the peak survey count occurring on August 14. In
WHlow Creek, chum salmon were observed from July 27 to September 9 .
The peak survey count was observed on August 6. The Sheep Creek chum
salmon peak survey count occurred on August 13. Observation dates
ranged from July 30 to September 6.
Chum salmon were observed spawning in the interface reach of five lower
river stream interface in 1984 (Table 9}.
Based on peak survey counts, the majority of chum salmon spawning
activities occurred i n Willow Creek (49.81) and in Trapper Creek (14.61)
(Table 10).
The additional three streams supported the remaining (35.6S) of chum
salmon spawning. Site maps in Appendix B depict the locations of
spawning areas wi thin each interface reach.
Habitat parameters (stream width, depth and substrate) were collected at
each of the stream interfaces where chum salmon spawning was observed.
These data are presented in Appendix Table E-1 . The findings indicate
that spawning chum salmon prefer gravel-rubble substrates . Each stream
interface reach where chum salmon spawning was observed had gravel-rubble
substrates (Appendix Table B-1). Stream interface reaches having
silt-sand substrates were not used for spawning by chum salmon in 1984.
Studies conducted by ADF&G Su Hydro Aquatic Habitat are consistent with
our findings (ADF&G, 1983b).

4.3.5 Coho Salmon
Seventeen streams in the lower Susitna River reach (RM 28.0 to RM 98.6)
were surveyed from July 21 to October 17 in 1984 (Ap pe nd ix Table D-1).
Of the streams surveyed, coho salmon were obs erv ed in thirteen streams
(Table 11). Two additional streams, Question Creek (84 .1) and Answer
Creek ( RM 84.0) were surveyed from Sep tember 20 to the 29 for coho
salmon spawning (Table 11).
The total peak survey count of coho salmon in the fifteen streams was
2,923 fish (Table 11). The majority were observed in Willow Creek
(41.9~) and in Rabideux Creek (16.4%). The remaining 41.7 ~ were
distributed among the remaining thirteen streams as listed i n Table 7.
These counts are index counts of relative abundance and are not intended
to represent total numbers of coho salmon i~ these streams.
Based on survey observations, coho salmon were generally abundant on
lower river streams late August and again in the last week in September
and first week of October in 1984 (Table 11). Coho salmon were observed
in Willow Creek from August 8 to September 18 in 1984 with the peak
survey count occurring on August 22 (Appendix Table D-1). In Rabideux
Creek coho salmon were observed from Septemb er 1 to October 1 with the
peak survey count occurr ing on October 1.
Coho salmon were not observed spawning in stream interface reaches in
1984 (Table 12). Previous data suggests that coho salmon prefer
rubble-cobble substrates for spawning (AD F&G, 1982). Habitat data
collected at lower river stream interfaces indicates that most of the

5.0 Surrmary
5.1 Mainstem and Slough Habitat
Surveys co nducted from RH 28.0 to RM 98 .6 located thirteen mainstem and
six slough spawning sites during 1984. Chum salmo r. ~ere the predominant
species utilizing both habitat types. An estimated chum salmon
escapement of 3,552 (0.4% of the minimum estimated Susitna River
escapement) was observed using mainstem and slough spawning sites in
this reach. The estimated escapement of coho salmon spawning in
mainstem and slough sites in this reach is 327 {0.2% of the minimum
estimated Susitna River escapement). The other species of Pacific
salmon were not observed spawn i ng in these habitat types in this reach.
Both species appear to be selecting sites that have upwelling or bank
seepage associated with them. Compared with the middle reach of the
Susitna River from Talkeetna (RM 97 .0) to Devils Canyon (RH 150 .0),
mainstem and slough spawning in the lower reach in minimal. There are
some sites, such as Trapper Creek side channel, that should have further
study and be included in mitigation planning. Studies should be
continued to further define spawning areas and conditions in this reach.
5.2 StreaM Habitat
5.2.1 Chinook Salmon
A total peak survey count of 3,027 chinook ~almon were observed within
the index areas of eleven lower river streams in 1984. The majority
were observed in Montana Creek (76. 3%). The peak observat ion period
during the survey period (July 21 to October 17) was the third week of
July.
A318
Chinook salmon were not observed spawning in lower river stream
inter face reaches in 1984. Interface reaches were used for milling and
for passage to upstream spawning habitats.
5.2.2 Sockeye Salmon
In 1984, a total peak survey count of 886 sockeye salmon were observed
within the index areas of twelve lower river streams. The majority were
observed in Willow Creek (24.8%), Trapper Creek (22.5%) and in Birch
Creek (19.6%). The peak of spawning occurred during the first three
weeks in August.
Sockeye salmon did not utilize lower river stream interface reac:•es for
spawning in 1984. Interface reaches were used for mi 11 i n9 and for
passage to upstream spawning habitats.
5.2.3 Pink Salmon
A total peak survey count of 14,177 pink salmon were observed within the
index area of thirteen lower river streams in 1984. The majority were
observed in Willo~ Creek (60.2%) and in Birch Creek (11.6%). The peak
of spawning occurred during the first three weeks of August.
Ten of the seventeen stream interfaces surveyed were found to be used
for pink salmon spawning in 1984. The total peak survey count of pink
salmon in stream interface reaches was 5,905 fish. The majority were
observed in Willow Creek (48.62:) and in Birch Creek (15.3:). Pink

for spawning in 1984.
5.2.4 Chum Salmon
In 1984, a total pe a k count of 1,505 chum salmon were observed within
the index area of twelve lower river streams. The majority were
observed in Goose Creek (25.5~). Wi l low Cree 1t (22.0~) and in Sheep Creek
(12 .0%). The peak of spawning occurred during the first three weeks in
August.
Five of the seventeen stream interface reaches surveyed were used by
chum salmon for spawning in 1984. The total peak survey count of chum
salmon in stream interface reaches was 315 fish. The m~jority of
spawning in interface reaches occurred in Willow Creek (49.8~) and in
Trapper Creek (14.6~). Chum salmon selected only stream interfaces
reaches having gravel rubble substrates for spawning in 1984.
5 .3.5 Coho Salmon
A total pea~ surveys count of 2923 coho salmon were observed within the
index areas of thi rteen lower river streams in 1984. The majority were
observed in Willow Creek (41.9~) and in Rabideux Creek (16.U). The
peak observations of coho salmon in 1984 were the last week of August
and again the first week of October.

6.0 GLOSSARY
General characteristics of habitat classifications that are associated
wi th the Susitna River {adapted from Sautn~r et al, 1984).
Main Channel Habitat : Consists of those portions of the Susitna River
that normally convey water throughout the year. Both single and
multiple channel reaches are included in this habitat category.
Groundwater and tributary inflow appear to be inconseq uential
contributors to the overall characteristics of ma i n channel
habitat . Main chan nel habitat is typically characterized by high
water velocities and well armored streambeds. Substrates generally
consist of boulder and cobble size materials with interstitial
spaces filled with a grout-like mixture of small gravels and
glacial sands. Suspended sediment concentrations and turbidity are
high during su11111er due to the influence of glacial melt-water.
Di scharges recede in early fall and the main channel clears
appreciably in October.
Hainstem Habitat : Consists of main channel and side channel habitats.
Side Channel Habitat: Consists of those portions of the Susitna River
that nonmally convey water during the open water season but become
appreciably dewatered during periods of low main channel discharge.
Side channel habitat may exist either in well defined overflow
channels. or in poorly defined channels flowing through partially
submerged gravel bars and islands along the margins of the ma i n
channel river. Side channel strearrbed elevations are typically
A322
lower than the mean monthly water surface elevations of the main
channel Susitna River observed during June, July and August. Side
channel habitats are characterized by shallower depths, lower
velocities and smaller streambed materials than the adjacent
habitat of the main channel river.
Side Slough Habitat: This habitat is located in overflow channels
between the edge of the floodplain and the main channel and si de
channels of the Susitna River. It is usually separated from the
main channel and/or side channels by well vegetated bars. An
exposed alluvial berm often separates the head of the slough from
main channel discharge or side channel flows. The controlling
streambed/bank. elevations at the upstream end of the side sloughs
are slightly less than the water surface elevations of the mean
monthly discharges of the mainstem Susitna River observed for June,
July and August. At intermediate and low-discharge periods, the
side sloughs convey clear water from small tributaries and/or
upwelling groundwater. These clear water inflows are essential
contributors to the existence of this habitat type. The water
surface elevation of the Susitna River generally causes a backwater
area to extend well up into the slough from its lower end. Even
though this substantial backwater area exists, the sloughs function
hydraulically very much like small stream systems and several
hundr.ed feet of the ~ 1 ough channe 1 often conveys water independent
of mainstem backwater effects. At high discharges, the water
surface elevation of the mainstcm river is sufficient to overtop

the upper end of the slough. Surface watf·r temperatures in the
side sloughs during summer months are princi?ally a function of air
temperature, solar radiation, and the tenperature of the local
runoff.
Stream Habitot: Consists of fuH complement of hydraulic and
morphologic conditions that occur in the streams. Their seasonal
flow, sediment, and thermal regimes reflect the integration of the
hydrology, geology, and climate of the stream drainage . The
physical attributes of stream habitat are nJt dependent on mainstem
conditions.
Stream Mouth Habitat: Ex _tends from the uppermost point in the
stream influenced by mains.tem Susitna Rher or slough backwater
effects to the downstream extent of the stt·eam plume which extends
into the mainstem Susitna River or slough.
Upland Slough Habitat : Differs from side slough habitat in that the
upstream end of the slough does not interc<~nect with the surface
waters of the main channel Susitna River or it side channels even
at high mainstem discharges. These slough! are characteri zed by
the presence of beaver dams and an accumulction of silt covering
the substrate resulting from the absence of mainstem scouring
discharges .

The following salmon spawning site descriptions are those located during
1984. They are ordered starting with the downstream most spawning site
and moving upstream.
RM 57.0R
This is a slough spawning site located adjacent to the East Bank Side
Channel near the Rustic Wilderness subdivision (Appendix Figure A-1). It
is the only slough site to be utilized by coho salmon. A survey on
October 13, 1984 located six live coho salmon and nine redds. Based on
the number of redds, this site was probably used by more salmon than were
counted. Upwelling was present throughout the spawning site.
RM 62.1R
This mainstem spawning site was observed immediately downstream of the
mouth of Caswell Slough (Appendix Figure A-2). This site is separated
from the main channel at low discharges by an exposed gravel bar. A
survey on October 9, 1984 identified five redd sites with two live and six
dead chum salmon . Upwelling was also observed. The upwelling observation
coincides with the open lead observations made in this area by R&M
Consultants. Inc. on March 18, 1983 (Coffin, 1983).
RM 63 .2R
This is a minor slough spawning site located near the mouth of Caswell
Creek Slough (Appendix Figure A-3). ~our live chum salmon and three redds

were observed during a survey conducted on October 11, 1984. Upwelling
was observed in the vici nity of the-spawning area. The influence of
Caswell Creek Slough may also have had an influence on fish selecting this
as a spawning site.
RM 71.6R
Twelve redds were observed at RM 71 .6R on October 9, 1984 (Appendix Figure
A-4). These redds were assumed to be chum salmon redds. No live fish
were observed but eight dead chum salmon were in this vicinity. This side
channel site, located near the head of Sheep Creek Slough, is separated
from the main channel Susitna River by gravel bars that are exposed at low
discharges. Bank seepage was observed at this site.
RM 73.9C
A main channel chum salmon spawning site was located at RM 73.9C, near
Goose Creek Slough (Appendix Figure A-5). It is located in the center of
the channel on a gravel bar disected by the mainstem Susitna River. Only
small portions of this complex are vegetated, indicating frequent
inundation by the mainstem. A survey conducted on September 25. 1984
fou nd seven redd sites and three dead ch um salmon. The number of redds
indicates that the site was utilized by 'a greater number of salmon than
"
were observed. The R&M survey indicates an open lead in this area. No
upwelling was observed in thi s site. No observed upwelling and the si t e
being directly on the mainstem ind icates that th e open lead may be
velocity related.

A side channel located near Trapper Creek from RH 92 .0C to RM 94.5L was
the most important mainstem spawning site located (Appendix Figures A-10,
A-ll and A-12). The channel is located along the left bank, separated
from the main channel by a broad, sparsely vegetated gravel bar. A total
of 90 redds were observed at this site. Due to the overlap of areas
utilized by spawning chum and coho salmon, it was impossible to
differentiate redds between the species . Surveys conducted between
Septembe r 23 and October 2, 1984 observed 538 live chum salmon and 75
l ive coho salmon. Upwelling was observed extensively throughout this
site. This was the major mainstem spawning s i te located.

RM 95.5C and RM 95.8C
Two minor mainstem sites located at RM 95.5C and RM 95.8C (Appendix Figure
A-12) were observed to have chum salmon spawning on September 27, 1984.
These sites are directl y on the main channel and had limited use. Data
associated with these two sites was com tl ined in the field with an
adjacent slough site.
RM 95.8L
This slough site is directly across from Musher Slough (Appe ndix Figure
A-12 ). It has been called Cache Creek slough si nce Cache Creek enters the
left bank at the upper end of the slough . A ~ur vey conducted on September
27, 1984 counted 160 live chum salmon but only 4 redds . The number of
live fish to number of redds ratio is low compared to other sites. The
chum ~almon located at this site may have been milling prior to moving to
other spawning sites or may have spawned at a later date. No upwelling
was observed at this site but the influence of Cache Creek may make
conditions suitable for chum salmon spawning .
RM 98.0L
Four individual chum salmon spawning sites were located in the braided
channels at the mouth of the Chulitna River (RM 98.0L ) (Appe ndi x Figure
A-13). Collectively, this is the second most productive site located in
1984. A total of 51 redds and 116 chum salmon was observed dur i ng a
survey conducted on October 9, 1984. Only one of the spawning sites had

Habitat descriptions, ~ite maps and adult salmon usage for stream
interface reaches in the lower Susitna River between RM 28 .0 and RM 98.6
i n 1984.
A350
Habitat parameters of channel width, depth and substrate components were
measured in the interface reach of eighteen lower Susitna River streams
located between RM 28.0 and 98.6 in 1984 (Figure B-1). These data were
collected at two mainstem discharges as measured by U.S. Geological
Survey at the Sunshine gaging station (RM 83.9) (Appendix Table E-1).
This appendix presents those findings by stream and in addition, defines
individual use of the stream interface r·eaches for adult salmon spawning
and passage.
Appendix Table B-1 summarizes the habitat and adult salmon use data for
all lower Susitna River ~tream interfaces sampled in 1984.
FISH CREEK (RM 31 .2 )
Interface Reach Habitat Description
The interface reach of Fish Creek is up to 150 feet wide and ten feet deep
high discharges, but the average width is less than 120 feet with
average depths less than six feet (Appendix Table E-1). The primary
substrate is silt-sand and the water is tannin stained (Figure B-2). At
a Susitna River discharge of 43,320 cfs on August 14, 1984 there were no
mainstem backwater effects observed in the stream. Susitna water was
backed up into the stream interface approximately 30 feet at a mainstem
discharge of 87,270 cfs on August 25. The Yentna River which influences th£
mouth of Kroto Slough below Fish· Creek may also have affected the
backwater area observed.

WILLOW CREEK {RH 49.1)
Interface Reach Habitat Description
The interface reach of Willow Creek is typically 50 feet across with
depths of six and a half feet or less {Appendix Table E-1). Water is
usually clear. Substrate is primarily gravel-rubble with two to four
inches of silt overlaying suitable spawning substrate (Appendix Figure

LITTLE WILLOW CREEK (RM 50.5)
Interface Reach Habitat Description
The interface reach of Little Willow Creek is approximately 70 feet wide
with depths less than 2.5 feet. At high discharges widths up to 90 feet
and depths up to four feet w~re me.asured (Appendix Table E-1).
Streambed substrates in this area are generally rubble and large gravel
with intermittent pockets of si 1 t-sand (Appendix Figure B-7). Creek
water is generally clear. At a mainstem discharge of 110,600 cfs on
Auguc;t 26 the creek water was turbid so it was difficult to determine
thE: extent of mainstem backwater effects. However, due to high creek
flow we estimate they were minimal or nonexistant. A slough just below
the mi'Juth carr ied mainstem water on both dates when habitat data was
collected in interface reaches.
Adult Salmon Use
Pink salmon spawning was observed in the interface reach of •little
Willow Creek in 1984 (Appendix Figure B-7). Habitat data collected at
transects in the interface reach revealed a streambed substrate

The interface reach of the Kashwitna Rher is typically over 100 feet
across and over six feet deep. Vis ibility was poor due to depth and
ba ckwater effects until late September when water levels decreased .
Streambed substrates are primarily rubble-cobble (Appendix Figure B-9).
High velocities combined with depths of over six feet precluded transect
measurements being taken in this river mouth. At mainstem discharges of
110,600 cfs on August 26 and 46,920 cfs on August 13 as measured at
Sunshine, there were no backwater effects from the ma i nstem into the
river mouth.
Adult Salmon Use
Salmon spawning activity was not observed in the interface reach of the
Kashwitna River between July 21 and October 17, 1984. Habitat
observations revealed a streambed composition ma i nly of rubble-cobble
which is within the rarge considered suitable for salmon spawning
habitat (AOF&G, 1983b). Spawning may have occurred in this reach
however, high velocities and depths of over six feet precluded
observations. The interface reach is a known passage area for chinook,
pink, chum and coho salmon spawning in upstream habitats (AOF&G, 19e4).
CASWELL CREEK (RM 64.0)
Interface Reach Habitat Description
The interface reach of Caswell Creek is an average of 70 feet wide and
