backwater habitats at RMI 297.0, RMI 297.5, and RMI 297.7. On 14 September, <br />203 fish were again stocked into the same backwater habitats as on 9 September. <br />On 23 September, four fish were also stocked into the same backwater habitats <br />as on 9 September. <br />As of this writing, only one fish from pond #1 has been recaptured. This <br />fish was captured at RMI 295.5, in the upper portion of a backwater habitat, <br />near woody debris, on 27 September. The fish measured 142 mm TL, and the <br />right pelvic fin was missing. The fish had either been holding in the same <br />backwater habitat since 8 September, or had moved downriver from one of the <br />other backwater habitats that had been earlier stocked. Evidence from other <br />razorback suckers stocked during September, in the same backwater habitats as <br />the fish from pond #1, suggests that the fish are moving downriver (Beard <br />1988). <br /> Date <br /> ----- ------ ----------- ------- Total <br /> 9/8 9/9 9/14 9/23 in BA <br />RMI 295.5 50 0 0 0 50 <br />RMI 297.0 50 70 63 2 185 <br />RMI 297.5 50 70 70 1 191 <br />RMI 297.8 50 70 70 1 191 <br /> 617 <br />t; <br />Table 6.
