Project 200007900: Assess Resident Fish Stocks of the Owyhee/Bruneau Basin on the Duck

Valley Indian Reservation

Mattie Allen, Shoshone Paiute Tribes

Duck Valley Indian Reservation

Coastal Rainbow Trout and Redband Trout Distributions

Redband Trout Distribution and Status in the Owyhee Subbasin

Past Activities in the East Fork Owyhee River Basin

Grazing Practices Hatchery Releases

• Hatchery coastal rainbow trout stocked over a period of several decades

•Riparian corridors remained unprotected despite heavy grazing pressure

Goal: Preserve native redband trout populations in East Fork Owyhee River and its tributaries.

Objectives

• Evaluate the genetic variation within and among putative native redband trout populations from 14 locations in the upper East Fork Owyhee River watershed

• Evaluate whether Fx progeny from events of introgression between hatchery rainbow trout and native redband trout or subsequent introgressed generations are present in 14 locations in the upper East Fork Owyhee River watershed
