Steelhead have been crossing Bonneville Dan and has shattered the single-day dam count record for seven straight days. Daily counts between Aug. 11 and Aug. 17 ranged between 16,626 and 34,053. The old single day record dam count was 14,432. A high percentage of these numbers are Idaho tagged hatchery fish.- Lewiston Morning Tribune and Idaho Statesman, Thursday, August 20, 2009.
Water temperatures in the Lower Salmon have been around 64 degrees. It looks like our quarry will be here early this year.
