2 HIGH SEAS SALMONID CODED-WIRE TAG RECOVERY DATA, 2010 ABSTRACT Information on high seas recoveries of salmonids (Oncorhynchus spp.) tagged with codedwire tags (CWTs) has been reported annually to the International North Pacific Fisheries Commission ( ) and to the North Pacific Anadromous Fish Commission (NPAFC, 1993-present). Data from these CWT recoveries are also reported into the Regional Mark Information System Database maintained by the Regional Mark Processing Center (RMPC, of the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission (PSMFC). This document lists recovery data for 61 CWT salmonids that will be reported to PSMFC/RMPC for the first time. These 61 CWTs were recovered from the 2008, 2009, and 2010 U.S. groundfish trawl fishery in the Gulf of Alaska (16 Chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), the 2009 U.S. groundfish trawl fishery in the eastern Bering Sea-Aleutian Islands (1 Chinook salmon), the 2009 Pacific hake (Merluccius productus) trawl fishery in the Northern Pacific Ocean off Washington/Oregon/California (WA/OR/CA, 39 Chinook salmon and 3 coho salmon, Oncorhynchus kisutch), the 2009 limited-entry non-hake groundfish trawl off WA/OR/CA (1 Chinook salmon), and from 2010 Japanese research vessel operations in the central North Pacific Ocean (1 steelhead, Oncorhynchus mykiss). For the first time, information on the recoveries of pseudo-tagged salmon (6 Chinook salmon) is also included in this report. 1

3 INTRODUCTION Since 1981, Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) tagged with coded-wire tags (CWTs) have been recovered in commercial fisheries and research programs in the North Pacific Ocean, Gulf of Alaska, and Bering Sea-Aleutian Islands. Data from these high seas CWT recoveries have been reported annually to the International North Pacific Fisheries Commission (Dahlberg ; Wertheimer and Dahlberg ; Dahlberg and Fowler 1985; Dahlberg et al ; Margolis 1985; Margolis et al. 1989; McKinnell et al. 1991) and to the North Pacific Anadromous Fish Commission (Dahlberg et al ; Myers et al ; Morris 2004; Celewycz et al ). Data from these CWT recoveries have also been reported into the coastwide on-line CWT recovery database ( maintained by the Regional Mark Processing Center (RMPC) of the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission (PSMFC). In this document, we list previously unreported data for CWT recoveries from the salmon bycatch of U.S. groundfish trawl fisheries for walleye pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) in the Gulf of Alaska and the eastern Bering Sea-Aleutian Islands, from the salmon bycatch of U.S. groundfish trawl fishery for Pacific hake (Merluccius productus) in the North Pacific Ocean off Washington/Oregon/California (WA/OR/CA), from the salmon bycatch of the limited-entry non-hake groundfish trawl fishery (WA/OR/CA), and from 2010 Japanese research vessel operations in the central North Pacific Ocean (1 steelhead, Oncorhynchus mykiss). New recoveries of CWT salmonids are compared to previous recoveries of CWTs reported to the International North Pacific Fisheries Commission (INPFC, ) and to NPAFC (1993-present). In recent years, adipose-fin clipped salmon have been captured on the high seas which upon dissection have yielded pseudo tags (agency-only wire tags). Pseudo tags are not CWTs; they do not possess a specific etched binary or decimal code which can be resolved to a specific tag code (Nandor et al. 2010). The only information these tags provide is the release agency. In this document, for the first time we report recovery information for pseudo-tagged salmon. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION This document lists recovery data for 61 CWT salmonids that will be reported to PSMFC/RMPC database for the first time. Of these 60 new CWT recoveries, 16 CWT Chinook salmon were recovered from the Gulf of Alaska trawl fishery in 2008, 2009, and 2010 (Table 1), 1 CWT Chinook salmon was recovered from the Bering Sea-Aleutian Islands trawl fishery in 2009 (Table 2), 39 CWT Chinook salmon and 3 coho salmon were recovered from the Pacific hake trawl fishery in the North Pacific Ocean off WA/OR/CA in 2009 (Table 3), 1 CWT Chinook salmon was recovered from the limited-entry non-hake groundfish trawl fishery in the North Pacific Ocean off WA/OR/CA in 2009 (Table 4), and 1 CWT steelhead was recovered from Japanese hook and line research in the central North Pacific Ocean (Table 5). The geographic locations of new recoveries of CWT Chinook salmon and steelhead are compared to previous recoveries and are summarized by region, province, or state of origin (Figures 1-9). A recovery in the northern Bering Sea in September, 2009 is a northwestern extension of the known ocean range of Oregon hatchery Chinook salmon (Figure 5; Table 2, recovery_id ). Recovery and release information for pseudo- tagged Chinook salmon is provided (Table 6), and 2

4 the geographic locations of pseudo-tag recoveries are shown (Figure 10). ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Fishermen, processors, observers, and scientists who participated in the high seas CWT recovery program are gratefully acknowledged. Cathy Robinson dissected salmon snouts, decoded CWTs, and entered CWT recovery data in an electronic database. LITERATURE CITED Celewycz, A. G., J. D. Berger, J. Cusick, and M.
