[env-trinity] 2020/21 CDFW Trinity River Project trapping summary through Julian week 40

[Kier, Mary Claire@Wildlife]

Greetings!
Attached please find the TRP trapping summary through JW 40 (Oct 7).

The Junction City weir is out for the season, the Trinity River Hatchery spring Chinook take is nearly complete.
The Willow Creek weir continues in fits and starts. The otters have found us again at WCW, as have a couple of bear and mink, so we're having a devil of a time getting fish into the trap. I can't blame them, I'd stay downstream at night if I were a salmonid too. We continue to haze the critters as best we can but the proximity of the weir to houses with sleeping Willow Creekans complicates this a bit. We will do what we can and hopefully catch enough fish to make a decent estimate of the runs.

The flow is being reduced from Lewiston to baseline winter flow this week (300 cfs). Maybe the wee bit of rain we're supposed to get this weekend will cut the smoke a little bit.
Cheers!
MC
