6/13 Quick Update

Fish tracking at Willow went well this week, with most of our bows spread throughout lower Willow Creek. One of the fish we found spawning in Little Willow has moved over to Willow. Rainy weather caused water levels to go up, lowering visibility and making rafting more challenging.

Next week we will begin snorkel surveys and additional tagging of rainbow trout.

If you are out fishing in the Susitna drainage be sure to regularly check emergency orders for salmon regs and be aware of closures during the king season (particularly on Willow below the Parks Highway, weekends only) that affect all species including rainbow trout.
