Salmonids can move great distances in search of food, habitat and potential mates, requiring them to travel through a range of different habitat types. Altered and degraded streams may restrict native salmonid use and access to habitat within or beyond urban areas. Locally, restoring native salmonids to streams in urbanized areas is of interest to recovery efforts. However, there is a lack of information in the literature on how salmonids use and navigate urbanized streams. This study used Passive Integrated Transponders (PIT-tags) …
