St. Croix River, St. Croix River Working Party Meeting, St. Andrews, New Brunswick, Calais, Machias, Maine, Atlantic Sea Run Salmon Commission, Salmon Passage, Fish Passage, Milltown Dam, Milltown Fishway Trap 

"A total of 342 salmon and grilse were counted through the Milltown Fishway trap from May 16 - November 15, 1985. The count was 100 fish higher than in 1984 and the highest since trapping began in 1981. Of the total fish captured, 14% were classed as 1SW salmon based on a fork length of < 63 cm.; 11% of the total run was classed as hatchery returns based on tag recaptures, fin degeneration and various marks. A small proportion (1.7%) of the salmon and grilse initially captured in Milltown fishway fell back downstream and were later recaptured in the fishway trap."
