SCHOONER CREEK FISH TRAP:

Good evening all,

No fish today at the trap. When I arrived the trap was almost completely blocked with about 5" of water in the trap itself. I cleaned what I could in the upper gate to start the flow then opened both gates to flush it out. While I was pushing silt down the trap at the lower gate I accidently kicked a fish in the nose that decided to enter the trap. The fish went back down, I finished cleaning, lowered both gates and had about 36" of flow when I left. I did see a female steelhead dead at the bank above the trap. It must have been the female from Monday. No wildlife today.

Mike
