Effect of fishing regulation on the occurrence of repeat spawners and age distribution of Atlantic salmon in a northern Baltic river
Abstract Upstream migrating Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., were trapped annually between 1990 and 2003 at the mouth of the River Simojoki in the northern part of the Gulf of Bothnia, the Baltic Sea, to collect hatchery brood fish. They were also collected between 1996 and 1998 in the river to esti...
