<br />. <br /> <br />Colorado Squawfish #40:7143 (CS714) <br /> <br />CS714 was captured by angling and implanted at RM 95.5 on 29 August 1996 (the same <br />location and date as CS663). Movement ofCS714 was contained within 0,6 river miles <br />throughout the course of this study, however locations by aircraft differed greatly from <br />the confirmed locations obtained by ground crews (see Appendix). Ground crews always <br />found CS714 in one of three locations (Figures 12 and 13). Two of these locations were <br />deep areas within the same pool (RM 95.4, RM95,5), One area was near the head of the <br />pool below a submerged sandbar. The other was near the tail of the pool along a <br />submerged bedrock shelf, The third location was about 0,5 river miles upstream in a <br />small backwater pool. In order to get back and forth from this final location, CS 714 had <br />to pass through a shallow riffle and a long run. On the morning of 13 September 1996 a <br />member of the Miller Ecological crew visually observed CS714 and three other Colorado <br />squawfish suspended at a depth of about one foot above the deep water immediately <br />downstream of the submerged sandbar. These squawfish were slowly moving within a 90 <br />foot area and occasionally feeding off the surface, <br /> <br />Yampa River Radio Telemetry Report <br />Miller Ecological Consultants, Inc, <br /> <br />Page 14 <br />January 23, 1997 <br />
