Studies to show whether pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha, Walbaum) will repeat their original choice of spawning area when captured and transported to another location were done in Olsen Creek, Prince William Sound, Alaska, in 1961, 1962, and 1963. Fish to be displaced were anesthetized with MS-222 (except in 1961 when no anesthesia was used) and marked with Petersen disk tags. Equal numbers of control fish were treated in an identical manner and left at the donor site.
