Description: The number of Arctic grayling Thymallus arcticus over 249 mm in FL was estimated at 678 fish (SE = 139) in a 42km section of the Nome River. Arctic grayling captured from the Nome River ranged from 112 to 485 mm in FL and in scale age from 1 to 10 years. Arctic grayling captured from the Eldorado River ranged in FL from 280 to 505 mm, and in scale age from 4 to 13 years. Of 93 Arctic grayling captured from the Eldorado River, six had been marked with OTC and were collected in order to validate aging techniques.
