Turtle Rock Hatchery

[Chris Nordling]

I just received a card from ODFW about a chinook I caught in July near Chinook Landing.

It says the hatchery is Turtle Rock, and I'm not sure where this might be. The fish was brood in 1997, and released in April 1999, and bonked on the 18th of last month . :grin:

Mmmmmm good !!!!

Can someone help me out ?

Chris :cool:
