Hey All,

Things just started picking up at Milford, and then we got another dose of cold rain again.  River flows came back up, and river temperatures started dropping again.    Shad and Sea Lamprey numbers responded negatively, however, it appears that the Salmon, along with the rest of us, have had enough and decided it was time and started to show up! 50 in the past 2 days, including 3 more repeat spawners from 2023!   Let’s hope the trend continues!

See the attached report for more details and numbers of other species.
