Weekend Festival In Ferry Celebrates Chinook Salmon
Knights Ferry
Come November, the view from the Knights Ferry Bridge is sure to include Chinook salmon during the peak of their migration. It is this time of year that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, East Stanislaus Resource Conservation District, FISHBIO, and other local partners come together to celebrate the annual Stanislaus River Salmon Festival. The sixth annual event will be held in Knights Ferry at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Stanislaus River Park on Saturday, Nov. 12 from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. The festival will host several activities for adults and children, including live music by local artists, fish print T-shirts, fly fishing demos, and demonstrations of salmon carcass survey techniques.
