Our most recent rains at the end of February have brought some steelhead trout to our tributaries to spawn! Through initial observations we have spotted 7 steelhead, 4 of which were spotted amongst Arroyo Creek. We have identified 2 new redds, which we expect were created by the most recent Steelhead activity. Additionally we have so far seen a couple of alevin on Arroyo Creek, most likely from spawning activity occurring last November.

We hope to get more observation days on the books to verify any other changes along our tributaries and assess the use for smolt trapping later this season.

We have compiled a blog post on our spawning season findings, alongside historical monitoring data, a map of the creeks we monitor and future analysis we hope to pursue. Click the link if you’re interested to learn more! www.seaturtles.org/2025-2026-coho-spawning-update
