Basic life history information of the important species captured during surveys on the Seward Peninsula and the Noatak drainage is presented. Thirteen lakes and portions of the Noatak River and its tributaries were surveyed. Lake trout, round whitefish, northern pike, least cisco, and grayling were the most common fish taken in lakes. Prespawning anadromous Arctic char were observed or captured in the Noatak River at the mouth of the Nimiuktuk, Kugururok, and Kelly rivers and also up the Kelly and Kugururok rivers and their tributaries.
