Aggregation:“A consistent and disjunct group of fish with no significant exchange of individuals with other aggregations, as indicated by recapture of PIT‐tagged juveniles and adults and movement of radio‐tagged adults.” (Valdez and Ryel 1995) There are eight recognized aggregations below Glen Canyon Dam:
Humpback chub are also caught outside of the aggregations. Samples are also being collected at:

There have been substantial increases in the captures of humpback chub in aggregation sampling since 2014, particularly at the LCR, Havasu, Pumpkin Spring, and in Western Grand Canyon.
