Abstract
Yearlings (0+) of coho salmon Oncorhynchus kisutch (19450 ind.) and masu salmon Oncorhynchus masou (3000 ind.) were released into the Kuchelinova River upstream of the Kuchelinovskoye Reservoir on July 15, 1987. The juveniles of both species were transported from the Ryazanovsky Experimental Salmon Hatchery. Results of these species monitoring in the basin of reservoir in 1987–1991 and 2020–2025 are presented.
