SCHOONER CREEK, SILETZ AND BOHANAN FISH TRAPS:
Wayde went on the trap run Monday with Bill Platte from ODF&W. Left the ODF&W office at 8:08 am. We first went to Schooner trap. Two elk hunters were parked at the gate and had just started walking in on the road. We waited a bit before driving in.

There were 13 wild Coho & 2 Steelhead, 1 wild hen and 1 hatchery hen.
The Coho were 6 bucks and 7 hens. Good to see some hens finally showing up.
No seal marks were noted nor other identifying marks or clips.
We left Schooner about 11:00 am and headed to the Siletz trap through Kernville and Hwy 229 to Siletz then up Logsden Road to the Gorge Road ending at milepost 13. The Siletz trap is down a short road to the river. We arrived at 11:54 am. A very slow day for the Siletz trap. Only 2 fish, both hatchery Steelhead, 1 buck and 1 hen. We did some trap cleaning of silt and leaves and then left for the Bohanan trap via Toledo and the "1000 line" road.
Good day at Bohanan. 13 wild Coho, 1 wild hen Steelhead and 1 hatchery hen Steelhead.
The Coho were 6 bucks and 7 hens. No marks or other identifying clips were noted. Left the trap at 3:00 pm and headed for Newport via the Beaver Creek Road to Hwy 101 at Ona Beach then up Hwy 101 to Newport. Arrived at the parking lot at 4:00 pm. Weather was exceptionally nice, log trucks were few and we saw 1 grouse.
