Shelly Creek Smolt Counting 2012

Volunteers are installing the smolt counting trap again this year in Shelly Creek, a tributary of the Englishman River. In the first 4 days nearly 600 coho smolts were counted and some of them were measured. It certainly indicates the value of the small stream for fish production - even a heavily impacted stream such as Shelly Creek.  Daily monitoring will continue until the end of May, Please contact us if you want to help.
