Improved overwinter survival in the main-stem West Fork Smith River could provide substantial benefits to coho salmon populations, although the challenges are substantial and costs are high due to the legacy of past management."

Females preferred upper, cooler waters, while males tended to congregate in the warmer lower reach. Females tended to be more robust and better endurance swimmers.  Both groups had heavy parasite burdens.  "We show for the first time that there are sex differences in habitat distribution and the endurance swimming ability of juvenile coho salmon. We also found a high prevalence of multiple tissue-specific parasites in all fish in the West Fork Smith River. Despite similar genotypes, fish in the upper reach had deeper bodies, higher condition factors, and blood lipids, regardless of sex."  (p.1587)},
