SILETZ FISH TRAP:

Thursday, July 3, 2008

Wayde & his grandson Scott Hutchings went to the Siletz trap with Kevin Bastien and Derek Wilson today. They wanted to check it on Thursday because Friday is a holiday and there are a lot of fish in the river. Mostly sunny in the gorge today and in the mid 60's.
The trap was checked on Wednesday the 2nd and 50+ fish were left in the trap and 60 were hauled to Moonshine Park and released. The trap held 110 fish today with the following count:
Hatchery Steelhead
36 bucks 53 hens
Wild Steelhead
6 bucks 14 hens
Wild Chinook
1 jack
60 fish were released at Moonshine Park and 29 were taken to Lincoln County Food Share.

The temperature in the trap and at Moonshine was 60 degrees. There were many fisherman today near the 1 mile mark.
3 deer were seen on the way in this morning.
