You're not kidding about the trout. So many there, feasting on salmon eggs I would assume.

The camera is right at the hatchery!! No fishing there.

Im pretty sure i saw hooks and floats go by. someone is. i dont intend on fishing anywhere near the hatchery. not my idea of fun or fishing.

I noticed that. With the large run of pinks this year some of the trout and dollies have gotten ridiculously fat.

the trout you are seeing could also be coho jacks. I looked ealier and saw a coho jack cruising around in there and a cutty  ;D but only 1 adult coho this time but loads of chummies.

the stuff you saw float by might not have been someone fishing but just debris floating about. its pretty hard to fish where the cam is because its mounted right where the little bridge and chain link fence are.

i did see a few jacks but im certain they were mostly cuttys and bows. not many adult coho. the water clarity has deteriorated a lot since early afternoon. does this mean the water level is rising or river is getting dirty?

I have been watching periodically, the small fish appear to be primarily rainbows with the odd coho jack and cutthroat mixed in.

well the water going by the camera is only coming out of the hatchery so it shouldnt be colouring up unless the river rises quite a bit however if its raining really heavy or when lots of fish get in there thrashing around it can stir up the fine sand thats in the hatchery channel.
