Shasta River Screw Trap and Fish Tagging Site
Detailed Description
This photo shows the California Department of Fish and Wilflife’s screw trap on the lower Shasta River, where Western Fisheries Research Center (WFRC) scientists surgically implant acoustic telemetry tags and passive integrated transponder tags into juvenil Chinook salmon collected at this site. These tagged fish are used to estimate survival of juvenile salmon relative to water flows in the Klamath River, California.
