Wayde & John S. accompanied kevin Bastien to the Siletz trap. Bright, clear and sunny day. It was actually hot before the day was over. Pretty big day at the trap. A total of 104 fish were in the trap, 15 left from Wednesday and 89 new ones. The best news was 4 spring Chinook were among the group. The breakdown is as follows:
Hatchery steelhead = 89
60 transported to a new dump spot about a mile below Moonshine Park
28 bucks 32 hens
4 tagged return fish that were recycled
25 left in trap for next visit
Wild steelhead = 11
4 bucks 7 hens passed up-river
Spring Chinook = 4
2 bucks 1 hen 1 jack passed up-river
On the way out we saw a spike deer in velvet.
John and I drove to Siletz and left John's rig there. Kevin was going on to the Salmon River Hatchery to get some rainbow trout for the ODF&W display at SEAFEST on Saturday. John and I drove home from Siletz.
