Steelhead count up(SLR) 10/17/10 TDH
Santa Cruz officials are reporting better-than-expected numbers of young steelhead trout in the San Lorenzo river. While the count of adult Steelheads has not improved, officials are encouraged by the high numbers of smolt, or young fish, in the river. The numbers were also up in a count in July. The Central Coast Steelhead was listed as endangered in 1997.
