htmlstart phillips . September 2 - Phillips River - Salmon Enhancement Seining
txt We are seining for Chinook for tagging. The tags are visual, not radio. They are
txt plastic line, threaded through the dorsal fin and knotted. Each tag has an ID number.
txt After spawning, people will search Phillips spawning tributaries for tagged "morts".
txt The data will tell fish biologists something. I'm not sure what.
txt We captured thirteen chinook, up to 44", and about nine coho.
