Methods:

The response of fish to fertilization was determined by collecting larval grayling from control and fertilized river reaches. Approximately every ten days, larvae were collected using dip nets and seines. YOY were brought back to camp, weighed and measured, then brought back to the creek and the locations from which they came.

Notes: YOY densities seemed to be extremely low this year, therefore, we concentrated our sampling efforts only on one site in the reference and one site in the fertilized reach.
