Temperatures were within the optimal feeding range for Atlantic salmon for the entire summer. The water temperature fluctuation showed a maximum daily range of just 2.3 C and 9 C throughout the whole season from June 10 to mid-September. Elliott (1991) found that juvenile Atlantic Salmon stop feeding when temperatures exceed 22.5 C. Temperature data are from the Maine Atlantic Salmon Commission.
