It’s spawning season on Fauntleroy Creek and the Fauntleroy Watershed Council has enlisted more than a dozen volunteers to keep watch between Oct. 10 and mid November.
They will be watching at the fish ladder during the five hours after high tide – when spawners are most likely to have made their way in from Fauntleroy Cove.
Last year was a low year for spawners, with just one expiring at the mouth of the creek and another dead on the beach. The mean since 1990 has been seven.
