Mokelumne river salmon run 2023

Record number of salmon return to Mokelumne river. Estimated more than 20,000 coming back this year, the highest in the past 80 years. We usually went to American river hatchery in Sacramento or more often Feather river in Oroville to observe the river salmon run and bypassed the smaller river of Mokelumne.

Why are the gates closed on that fish ladder ?

[@MrWhitneywalker]

Because the hatchery can only “handle” some many salmon at one time.

[@richard3793]

@@MrWhitneywalker I didn't think of that good call.

Open the gates

Is the bash

[@lag9765]

The utilities, state and feds doing what they do best, destroying another magnificent salmon run...

Omg this is horrible. How can this be happening in 2023. I am utterly sick to my stomach.
