Herring Count Training

Learn how to count fish at the Ipswich Mills Dam fish ladder. Volunteers sign up for 10 minute counts at the Ipswich Mills Dam that help estimate the population of river herring returning to the Ipswich River to spawn. The count takes place from April to early June. Results underscore the need for river restoration.
