Abstract

The status of Atlantic salmon in two systems, namely Rocky River and Little River are assessed. Egg deposition for each watershed was 56%, and 202% respectively of the required conservation egg deposition. Flat Bay Brook, Romaines River and Piper's Hole River are updated in terms of stocking activities. The 1997 Rocky River smolt count of 16,900 is the highest on record.
