`~:.e stried bass were ra~-~~n th,.;~ any ether b._~eFish s~ec~-s. In <br />particular, Spring sampling }'fielded large nu-:hers of stripers ~~ith ~_kril being <br />the peak month. Few stripers were marked with Division of [;ildlife Resources <br />"spaoi~:etti" tags because of either net mortality or obvious sicns of net <br />stress. A list of all of the stripers collected can be found on Tables },-kII. <br />In all, nine gamefish species were sampled. The single lake trout taken was an <br />anomaly. This fish was in very poor condition and a probable migrant from <br />upstream, perhaps from one of the reservoirs comprising the ~ti'a}one Aspinal units <br />in Colorado. A summary of all the fish taken, by month, in 1984 can be found <br />in Tables III-IX. <br />Although we were unable to successfully track the razorback suckers, our <br />collections yielded valuable infomation on the status of both ,the razorback <br />sucker and Colorado squawfish in Lake Powell. In particular, the relativel}~ <br />high numbers of adult squawfish collected was very unexpected. Future studies <br />may be recommended to further define the life history of both species within <br />Lake Powell and the probable interrelationship with major tributaries. <br />
