Migratory and reproductive behaviour of female adult Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., in a spawning stream
Migration and spawning behaviour of eight Atlantic salmon adult females were analysed by radio-tracking in relation to the degree of sexual maturity in a spawning tributary of the R. Sélune. Six of them were grilse and four of them were ripe. All the fish migrated upstream until reaching their spawn...
