Fall 2015 Saugeen River Steelhead Transfer

The annual fall steelhead rainbow trout transfer on the Saugeen River is underway and currently in progress. We will try to update the daily transfer numbers as the project progresses. Each year, Ontario Steelheaders uses custom-made aquariums on wheels to transfer adult steelhead to Hanover, Ontario, bypassing many of the dams that exist on the Saugeen River for a better chance at survival. The transportation trailers are also used and release stocked steelhead (rainbow) and brown trout in the Saugeen River at other times of the year.
