From 4 July to 12 August 1995, abundance, composition, and selected fishery statistics were estimated for Dolly Varden Salvelinus malma (Walbaum) on the Anchor River. A total of 10,994 Dolly Varden were counted through a weir located 1.5 km upstream from salt water on the Anchor River. This Dolly Varden immigration is the fifth highest total adult return documented since this study was begun in 1987. Although anglers appear to be practicing more hook and release fishing when pursuing Dolly Varden, they continue to select fish larger than 350 mm for harvest. This is the completion of 9 consecutive years of studying Dolly Varden on the Anchor River. Based on a review of all study years, the number of fish deaths due to angling is much lower than from "natural" causes. In the one year when fishing was closed during spawning (1990), the survival rate from 1990-1991 for age 6-7 was 0.652, whereas in other years it ranged from 0.216 to 0.419.
