Smith HD. 1964. The segregation of red salmon in the escapements to the Kvichak River system, Alaska. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Special Scientific Report-Fisheries. 470. US Department of the Interior

Groups of red salmon bound for specific spawning grounds in the Kvichak River system, Alaska, were studied to determine the extent of their segregation during migration up the river. Spawning groups were found to be intermingled to the extent that they could not be managed independently through the application of differential fishing pressure.
