Sam says that the Graywolf has bulls, but the Dungeness has Dollies. I'll open a new thread later with the details of last night's meeting. Chas So, are they Dungeness Dollies or Graywolf Bulls that I've been catching? They're obviously a sea run fish due to their size. Darin |

Chas So, are they Dungeness Dollies or Graywolf Bulls that I've been catching? They're obviously a sea run fish due to their size. That's a tough question, Darin. Sam claims to be the first to prove that Bulls are sometimes anadromous. The point here is that they haven't found Bulls in the Dungeness, so the Graywolf bulls may not be anadromous. The question is, where are you catching the fish? How big are they that you've decided they must be anadromous? For the real answer, email Sam at: I'm sure he'll be glad to hear from you, and will have the full answer. No harm in mentioning that I gave you his Email address.

Interesting, because that would be opposite of the distribution on the systems emptying directly into the ocean (Ex: Hoh etc) right? (ie Graywolf being a trib of the Dungeness for those not familiar with the geography under discussion). I wonder what role the upper canyon plays? And I seem to remember that the Forks was some kind of "seam" in the distribution according to folklore. Dave |

How big are they that you've decided they must be anadromous? The smallest I've caught is 22" the biggest is 27". All but 1 were caught below the hatchery and the one wasn't far above it. Thinking about it now after reading your question regarding size, I guess that size alone should not be the determining factor in that they're anadromous, I just assumed that they were. For the real answer, email Sam at: I'm sure he'll be glad to hear from you, and will have the full answer. No harm in mentioning that I gave you his Email address. Thanks, I just might have to do that. Darin |

Sounds like returning anadromous fish to me, but Sam will know. For the real answer, email Sam at: I'm sure he'll be glad to hear from you, and will have the full answer. No harm in mentioning that I gave you his Email address. Thanks, I just might have to do that. Don't be bashful, I think feedback from anglers is the kind of break they like. Sam is a fisherman, he caught several of the tagged fish himself, and had friends help catch the rest.

And I seem to remember that the Forks was some kind of "seam" in the distribution according to folklore. In fact, the Hoh was a complete surprise, backwards from the conventional wisdom. Sam said that the biggest thing they've learned is that they really have a lot to learn about bulls. Which river's upper canyon are you referring to?
