SILETZ FISH TRAP:

Frank and Kevin checked the Siletz trap on Friday. Weather was great and the area was not very busy. There were a total of 9 steelhead in the trap. 4 new fish and 5 in the holding pens. They were a mix of wild and hatchery fish. 3 pair were taken as brood stock to the Alsea hatchery. The fish were transported across the river in the tubes because the transport system has not been signed off on yet by the ODF&W engineers. 17 fish were returned to the Siletz River from Alsea. Only game of note seen was one grouse.
