Three fish population study sections on Rock Creek have 

 been periodically sampled since the early 1970 's. Creel 

 census data is available for Rock Creek since the mid 

 1950 's. Fish movement (jaw tagging) and growth rate studies 

 have also been conducted. 



Annual progress reports, outlining the results of these 

 studies, are available from DFWP's Missoula office. 



FUTURE ACTIVITIES ; The Bearmouth, Turah, Mi 11 town and 

 Johnsrud Park study sections will.be monitored yearly. The 

 Rock Creek sections will be periodically monitored. The 

 monitoring station at Lincoln and a new station on the 

 Blackfoot River near Ovando may be added. The Bonita 

 Station will probably be dropped.
