Another male blue sucker fish 10 also exhibited a large downstream movement in early 2013, but it
was found in a major tributary of the lower Sabine River, Anacoco Bayou (Figures 17-19). In early 2013,
fish 10 moved 36 miles downstream from its tagging location (RM 140) to Anacoco Bayou. This fish was
located 17.4 miles up Anacoco Bayou on February 7, 2-23. The habitat associated with this location was
a run with large woody debris present, but the precise location was not known because this fish was
tracked by airplane. It appeared that fish 10 moved downstream during the descending limb of the
hydrograph, but there are too few contacts during this time to know precisely. Fish 10 was detected by
a SUR upstream of the mouth of Anacoco Bayou (~RM 104) on February 21, and one day later by manual
tracking at RM 107. By April 9, 2013 this fish was located back at its tagging location.BIWSM032
