April 21st, 2005: Chum Drops
From Spanish Bank Streamkeepers:
Spanish Bank Creek
CHUM DROPS:
(1) Thursday, April 21st
(2) Tuesday, April 26th
(3) Thursday, May 5th
Our DFO Coordinator Sandie Hollick-Kenyon will be bringing 10,000
Chum fry to the Creek on each of the three dates shown above. Sandie
is planning to arrive at the Creek each day, between 6 and 6:15
p.m. rather than 4 p.m. as previously announced.
If you would like to help us put the fry into the Creek, plan to
turn up beside the Creek on the south side of NW Marine Drive at
6 p.m. Bring rubber boots or waders. Children and cameras are welcome
but dogs are not. Sandie provides buckets to transport the fish
up the Creek.
These Chum fry were spawned at the Kanaka Creek hatchery in the
Fall of 2004. Some of them will return to the Creek to spawn in
November, 2008.
Any questions, call me at 604 228-9346. Chum drops go ahead rain
or shine.
