Umpqua Fish Derby Launches Fish Count Updates Utilizing Locally Built Software

12:03 AM · Dec 15, 2023

The Umpqua Fish Derby is excited to begin reporting regular updates of actual fish counts from our live-streaming FishCam at Winchester Dam. Our local volunteer project team (Tracker LLC) has developed innovative software to increase the efficiency and accuracy of the fish counting process. The software also provides interesting information about fish behavior related to species migration patterns related to time of day, river flows and temperatures. We appreciate all of the continued support and gracious donations that allow us to develop and improve this one-of-a-kind public viewing opportunity for everyone to enjoy seeing and learning about the North Umpqua fish populations. Please visit our https://www.UmpquaFish.com website and the Umpqua Fishery Enhancement Derby's Facebook page for updated fish counts and data. Weekly Report (Dec. 3rd – Dec. 9th) Total fish counted: 125 Total species identified: 4 Most active day: Wednesday Dec 06, 2023 Peak hour of activity: 3 pm
