- Dolly Varden at sea in winter shows the fish in saltwater in the Juneau area.
- This may be the first real documentation of these fish at sea in winter.
- When I studied Dolly Varden in Southeast Alaska at Eva Lake on Baranof Island no Dolly Varden entered the weir towards the lake after mid-December. Also we could not find any in saltwater during winter by seining.
- Tagging and fin-clipping indicated that the majority of the Dolly Varden spent the winter in freshwater lakes and some rivers.
- This is a project in progress and will be updated as I get more information.
