The Department of Fish & Wildlife has conducted two Kokanee egg takes on the Little Truckee River, above Stampede Reservoir this season.  These two events have resulted in the collection of 1.1 million green eggs.  All eggs are currently incubating at the San Joaquin River Hatchery.  We anticipate one, maybe two, more take events to reach our egg allotment goal of 1.8 million green eggs. Based on fish counts at the last take event this goal should be achievable with in-state eggs.

Take 1: 09/28/21 - 175,608 eggs
Take 2: 10/05/21 - 944,400 eggs
                 Total - 1,120,000 eggs
