🚨 Due to the warm winter, steelhead are ready to spawn early this year! Salmon River Fish Hatchery (in Altmar, Oswego County) staff have been keeping an eye on the steelhead in the fish ladder. We checked earlier this week and the females are nearly 70% ready to spawn!

❄🧊 As long as there is no snow and ice, we will open the hatchery to the public to watch the egg collection process in the mornings starting this Thursday, March 14. As well as Friday, March 15, and Monday, March 18 (Note: No weekends!). The egg collection process typically runs between 9:30 AM and 12:00 PM. After March 18, be sure to call the hatchery (315-298-5051) to make sure we are still collecting eggs as the steelhead egg collection is shorter than the Pacific salmon collection in the autumn.

Depending on weather and other factors, the hatchery may close after the egg collection finishes and reopen Monday, April 1 (Not an April Fools!).

🗺 Address: 2133 County Route 22, Altmar, NY 13302

🐟🥚 Egg collection for steelhead is a different process than egg collection for Pacific salmon in the autumn. Steelhead do not die during the process, they are held for a short recovery period and then released back into Beaverdam Brook and the Salmon River to return to Lake Ontario. Steelhead can spawn two or three times in their lives, unlike Pacific salmon that only spawn once.
