More salmon
Salmon returns to the Glenariffe salmon research station on the Rakaia River are well up on returns for the same time last year, according to the technical officer for Fisheries Research, Mr Ron Dougherty. The station would calculate the total salmon return for the year in late June, he said. An encouraging number of more than 2000 salmon had returned and included about 1000 tagged salmon, he said. “Our 1985 total return of 7168 salmon included 4346 hatchery salmon and it is likely this year’s figures will be higher than this," Mr Dougherty said.
