SILETZ FISH TRAP:

Friday, 6/21
Wayde Dudley and Larry Dale went to the Siletz trap today with Kevin Bastien. It was a beautiful day in the gorge with plenty of sunshine. Lots of fishermen around Wildcat bridge. Saw one guy who had 2 steelhead and was walking out. River is very clear and 53 degrees. Seems like many summer steelhead are in the river.44 fish were in the trap. 27 new ones and 17 holdovers. There were 6 wild hens and 2 wild bucks that were released upriver.26 hatchery hens and 10 hatchery males were tagged with yellow tags and transported across the river in two loads. These 36 fish were all returned to the river at the Moonshine Park boat landing. Not many trucks on the road today and no critters.Wayde
