Coaster Brook Trout Caught in Credit River Ontario
CRAA President John Kendell posted some very exciting information on the CRAA website yesterday about a coaster brookie that they lifted at the Streetsville dam.
Original Post:
Today CRAA, working with Mark from MNR lifted a coaster brook trout, about 3.2 pounds or 18 inches at the Streetsville fish ladder. This is the first brookie we have ever seen and it was high fives all around! Wouldn't it be amazing to add these guys to the mix of fish in the river!
We also lifted a few more browns. To date CRAA has captured and transported 20 migratory brown trout up the river.
Under the brook trout you will see a grilse Atlantic salmon that I caught below the dam as well yesterday.
2008 is proving to be a very exciting year. Record steelhead lift, record Atlantic return (since at least 1870's) and now a coaster brookie. Plus transporting brown trout and steelhead in the fall.
This is another fantastic example highlighting how the Credit River is becoming a cleaner, healthier river due to work by CRAA, MNR, CVC and other groups.
