The fish at this stage are totally protected from predators and other hazards. Good flow of pure water is critically important to survival of alevins. Newly Emerged Fry Alevins lose their sacs, and emerge from the gravel as fry in May and June. They feed on plankton and small insects. Sockeye fry move into a lake for a year, although pink and chum fry swim directly to the sea.
Water flow is again critical, for scientists have found that high flow means high survival.
