The tag on the fish was one of the yellow spaghetti tags but I'm a little confused. Was this fished not tagged until it reached the Kalama hatchery and then it was trucked back down to the columia or was it tagged as a smolt? confused The fish was really bright compared to most of the steelhead I've been catching lately and covered with sea lice so I thought it was pretty fresh. Also, the tag was kind of corroded.
