Juvenile Anadromous Atlantic Salmon of Three Lakes of Newfoundland
Abstract Anadromous Atlantic salmon parr ( Salmo salar ) were captured from three Newfoundland lakes. Yearling and 2 year parr were captured most often in shallow water <2 m deep around lake perimeters and were not abundant at greater depths. The 3+ and 4+ parr age groups were rarely found inshor...
