Bill and I traveled to Bohanan this morning where there were 6 male Coho, 7 Female and one Female Rerun Coho for a total of 14. Bill accidentally dropped the chain that locked the gate wheel into the creek but after opening the gate he was able to retrieve it inside the trap. Water was running very high today but not as many leaves as last week.
The Siletz trap was all steelhead. There were a total of 8 consisting of 7 hatchery and 1 wild. One if the hens was very bright and Bill considered it to be a winter steelhead. There was a second hen that was bright but not as bright as the first that may have been a winter fish as well, In addition we noticed that one of the males had a red tag indicating that it was a rerun and one had the left mandible plate clipped.
ODFW employees had their first furlough day today so there was no one in the office. No logging trucks were running but there were lots and lots of elk "road-hunters."
