Nestucca Angler’s and Cedar Creek Hatchery staff spawned the last egg take for the class of 2024 fry. The fry will stay in the hatch house under the care of the hatchery staff through the winter.
Here are a few pictures of the hatch boxes within the hatch house. Thank you to all the volunteers that worked very hard this fall collecting Broodstock and with the spawning. Special thanks to the Cedar Creek Hatchery staff as their leadership and teamwork is a big part of the success of Rhoades pond Fall Chinook Broodstock Program (ODFW STEP).
