Let's net some herring

[Young Salt]

Now before everyone starts freaking out and telling me it's illegal let me explain.

There is a run in E. Providence that was dammed decades ago. The dam is a good 12 feet high and there is no fish ladder. The only reason the run is still going is because of people who have netted the herring and tossed them over the dam. The DEM has plans to put ladders in...but who know when that may actually happen.

I need people who can volunteer to help net them at this spot over the next month.

Netting them isn't easy...or even that safe. Like I said, the dam is about 12 feet high and there is a lot of water going over it this time of year. You have to climb down these big slabs to get down to the water, and you are somewhat pinned against a stone wall about 3' from the water.

I found out last year it's a project that really needs three people to be effective, but the more people the less work it is...so if you think you may be interested in helping out let me know.
