Ten Mile River Watershed Council 2020 fish counting Season

Posted

The Ten Mile River Watershed Council will team up with the RI Fish and Wildlife DEM to kick off the 2020 fish counting season on March 8 for training sessions at Hunts Mills, from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm. This will be our 6th year of fish counting and last year was our best year with a count of 21,000 herring, up from 11, 00 in 2019.
Volunteers will do a 10 minute count once a week or more if you have time and record water levels, temperature, and weather conditions and count the herring seen swimming over the top of the fish ladder.

Hunts Mills is located at 65 Hunts Mills road Rumford R.I. Contact the Ten Mile River Watershed Council at Keith@tenmileriver.net for more details.
