Chillawck weir and fish hatchery
This woman's job is to lift the fish out of the water and dump the fish onto a table to be sorted.
Fish are sorted in this area.
Some are sorted by male and female and put into ponds so their eggs can be used for stocking the river.
Others were harvested to be sold by the first nation tribes.
Eggs from the fish are put in these trays until they use up their yolk sacks.
Then they move to these tanks to get a little bigger.
Then live in these outdoor ponds until they are released back into the river.
