Slocan River Summer Temperatures (1997 to 1998)
Download: srss_arndt_report_slocanriversummertemperaturein1997and1998implicationsforrainbowtroutdistributi.pdf
This report was prepared for FWCP and describes the results of the 1998 monitoring, and compares them to 1997 and some earlier data. Potential implications of the temperature regime for trout distribution and production are discussed, and recommendations for further assessment and enhancement are presented. The Slocan River is one of the larger rivers in the West Kootenays. In the 1960s, it supported an excellent recreational fishery for large rainbow trout. This fishery declined drastically in the mid-1970s and trout numbers have remained low since then, in spite of experimental stocking programs and closure of the river to angling since 1994.
