Abstract
Salmon from the commercial fishery at Cape Charles, southern Labrador, were tagged in 1948. During the short tagging period of June 30 to July 10, 35 salmon and 24 grilse were tagged. Due to delays in reaching Labrador the peak of the salmon run was missed, and it was difficult to get salmon in good condition for tagging because of storms. Salmon returns consisted of 5 taken in commercial gear in Labrador and 1 angled in a west coast Newfoundland river, giving a total recovery of 17.1%. Only 2, or 8.3%, of the tagged grilse were recaptured, both being caught in commercial gear in Labrador.
