Summary
Autumn monitoring of shallow water habitats targeting small-bodied fishes was conducted on the San Juan River for the ninth year in 2006. The primary objectives of this ongoing monitoring are to characterize and track changes in assemblages of smallbodied fishes and young-of-year of large-bodied fishes, including razorback sucker and Colorado pikeminnow. A total of 3,788 fishes were collected in 2006. For the first time since 1998, over 50% of the fishes collected were native.
