Streams and Salmon in the News
Sept 28, 2026: The first fall runs of chinook salmon since the project in California and Oregon was completed have surpassed researchers’ expectations.
East Bay Regional Parks:
Rainbow trout and steelhead trout are actually the same species! The difference is in how they live. Some spend their entire lives in freshwater creeks and streams, while others migrate to the ocean, where they physically transform to adapt to saltwater, growing larger and changing to a silvery color. These ocean-going trout are known as steelhead, and they eventually return to freshwater to spawn.
