Lulu was marked as "dead" on day one, I thought? Five dead now, FMcFF is still flying high, I think he'll move up the leaderboard a bit today, he's a cruiser.
Fish on...

I'm gonna run down to the Skok and huck spinners at Dawg Paddle and Steely a bit later today. Your fish are screwed Parker! Bringing dynamite as backup....   I genetically modified these two fish to only respond to either a double stacked RVRFKR or a big-ass glob of the never-released-to-the-public UEC. When you are down there and notice a horrible stench and tiny little bubbles coming to the surface, it's not the normal man-turds that line the bank and float down the river. Those bubbles are noxious fish-farts from Steely and Dawg Paddle sent your way.

They're dropping fast now. Lots getting picked off at the mouth of the Skokomish. Interesting watching LuLu. She wouldn't go past the Hood Canal Bridge. I wonder if she was actually picked off early, and we're seeing the seal hanging out. That happened to my little guy last year - nabbed early and I was teased by watching him move from McNeil to the Narrows and back again until I concluded he had become part of the 30 millions pounds of food seals in P.S. consume every year. Uff Da!!

Fishy McFishFace swam all the way into and around Dabob Bay, and is now sitting at the Hood Canal Bridge...this is his moment of reckoning.
Fish on...

Boom Has exited the Nisqually and is loitering at the Narrows bridge today. This is where my fish died last year, if he gets past the narrows I think he has a real shot!

Those bridges are real killers for the outgoing smolts...they aggregate predators, and concentrate prey...and our little guys are definitely prey.
The HC Bridge is especially tough on steelhead since they tend to migrate quite close to the surface, and the floats on that bridge go 14-17 feet down into the water.
Fish on...

Steely must have fallen prey to Sky-Guy and a double stacked RVRFKR. OTOH, not too sure how that would have happened as both my fish are
NISQUALLY fish
Eh. Guess it really doesn't mater.
RIP, Steely.
Dawg Paddle is still hanging in there........

Flashy is dead. What?! I barely made it to saltwater!
Oh gosh, there's a seal over there! Salish Sea Marine Survival Project researchers don't just tag fish...they also tag seals. Seals are tagged to track encounters between them and juvenile steelhead, a method of determining their impact to the fish. Researchers glue instrument "backpacks" to the seals' pelts. These backpacks include a GPS tracking unit that records where the seal goes, a depth sensor that records how deep in the water the seal dives, and an acoustic receiver to track encounter rates with tagged steelhead like yours. The backpacks stay on the seal until late summer; when the seal molts the backpack falls off and floats in the water so scientists can find and retrieve it. Initial work indicates seals do encounter steelhead often and are eating them.

Todd My fish had no trouble with the bridge. Did a little circle and then blew right by it...... only to be eaten at Driftwood Keys.
