For my work creating a Dolly Varden genetic baseline we electrofish small creeks to collect newly emerged Dolly fry.
E-fishing in action. The fish are tiny and don't get stunned for very long, so we have to be quick with the nets.
At Disappearing Creek, the stream literally bubbles up from a spring after 300 yards or so. Last year we were dismayed to find the "end" of the creek when we hadn't collected enough fish, but this year we did better. After shocking the creek we drank from the spring and took a little break.
