Hidden Falls eggtakes are continuing at a good pace but it appears there will not be enough broodstock to meet the 180 million egg goal. Currently we have 115 million eggs (August 3) and on that same day coincidentally we had our largest eggtake of the season (12 million). The estimated number of chum being held is about 30,000 which should result in 30 million eggs. We have requested 20 million eggs from DIPAC and another 10 million from AKI. If these requests come through we expect to have 175 million eggs.
The distribution of these fry next spring will approximate 55 million at Kasnyku Bay, 45 million at Takatz, 24 million at Deep Inlet, and 50 million at Southeast Cove.
Currently the harvest of adult Hidden Falls stock chum at Deep Inlet is 650,000. An additional 50,000 catch is attributed to the fall stock (Medvejie) which should be building this next week.
