Comments: Caught seven Broad Whitefish (Coregonus nasus) in spawning condition. All fish had tubercules on their heads and eggs and milt was gravid and easily expressed from individuals. Female Broad Whitefish GSI was estimated to be 20%--25%. Fish were caught on the downstream side of the gill net at head of eddy and presumably migrating upstream.
