Caption: A coho salmon spawner survey was conducted in the Redwood Creek watershed during the 1997-1998 season by the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GOGA). Live adult coho salmon, carcasses, and redds were observed along a 6.7 km reach of the mainstem Redwood Creek, as well as along 1 km of both Kent and Fern Creeks. The data above shows observations from the mainstem portion of Redwood Creek. In addition, 2 live coho were found in Kent Creek and 9 live coho and 5 coho redds were found in Fern Creek (See Source Table). GOGA notes that live coho observations do not represent the true number of spawning adults. No surveys were conducted in February due to high flows and turbid water.
