Very good forum. I am new to it also but already got good advise from it. Enjoy the chats and pics people put on hear. I am glad I joined and I think you will be also.
 
Bummer on the fish. Think it's due to that mine over there?

I might give it a try for birds later.

I do not think it is the mine. The mine is close to the town of Kemmerer.

There are probably a lot of factors that contribute to mercury levels in fish.

I think the inability to have a constant water level , erosion, run off, natural geology, etc.

The Bear River runs through a lot of farm land before it makes it to Woodruff Narrows.


There is a lot of mercury in the gold mines of Nevada, but not as much in the shale of south western Wyoming.
 
I wouldn't worry about the mercury/fish issue...unless you're 20 years old, pregnant and eating those fish 20 days a month.
 
I was just guessing that it had to be a mine with the security measures at the gate. But, no telling with all the "top secret" stuff going on around these parts.

Read you load & clear mercury. Regrettable, I've got 4 kids under four.... More 4 Me!! :) Doesn't matter, we tear up the trout elsewhere; and wind up with just enough to feed everybody the night of the trip.
