Description
Abstract: The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife(ODFW) has maintained a hatchery program to supplement the winter steelhead fishery in the Siuslaw River system since 1964. Until recently the stock of winter steelhead for the Siuslaw hatchery program was the Alsea stock raised at Alsea Hatchery. In recent years several concerns have surfaced regarding the appropriateness of using Alsea stock steelhead in the Siuslaw basin. It was observed that large numbers of hatchery fish were spawning with wild fish. The concern was that hatchery steelhead were poorly adapted to the wild environment. It was also learned that large numbers of hatchery steelhead released in the Siuslaw basin strayed to other smaller coastal tributaries such as the Yachats River, Tenmile Creek and Cape Creek. Both these issues caused the Siuslaw winter steelhead hatchery program to be out of compliance with the ODFW Wild Fish Management Policy(WFMP). The WFMP sets guidelines for hatchery programs to protect the genetic integrity of wild fish populations.
