Methods:

The response of fish to fertilization was determined by collecting YOY grayling from control, recovery 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 river and released at the locations from which they came.
