The final journey of a kokanee salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka), captured during the 2025 run on the Upper Columbia River, an iconic watershed that spans both the U.S. and Canada. Kokanee salmon, unlike their ocean-going cousins, spend their ENTIRE lives in freshwater - and almost all of that in deep, cold freshwater lakes.

It's fall, so that means spawning time for kokanee salmon is starting soon! Enjoy this Fantastic Throwback Thursday FWP Fisheries hit from November 2022! 😀Biologists count kokanee redds (spawning nests) each fall, and they think that is A-O-K. In fact, they are K-O-K with that. 🍂Kokanee mature and can reproduce usually in 4 years and spawn in pairs during November-December. 🌊Kokanee were first introduced into Montana in Flathead Lake in 1914.

It’s the second year kokanee salmon have been stocked on the Colorado side of this reservoir. In 2026, we will set up a Merwin trap net at Navajo State Park in hopes of seeing some of these same fish return to spawn. : CPW/John Livingston | Colorado Parks and Wildlife | Facebook

Well, here's something you don't see every day. Our aquatic biologists and field staff are in the middle of the kokanee salmon spawning season at the Roaring Judy Hatchery near Gunnison. Every year, millions of kokanee eggs are collected and hatched. Fingerlings are then released in the spring for sport fishing at reservoirs throughout Colorado. | Colorado Parks and Wildlife
