Seafood is abundant off the San Luis Obispo coastl

Seafood is abundant off the San Luis Obispo coastline, but it may come as a surprise that the creeks used to teem with steelhead trout too. Sadly, the local population of this fish species was federally listed as threatened in 1997 due to their diminishing numbers.

A page in Robert A. Brown’s The Story of the Arroyo Grande Creek describes how “… steelhead would fill the creek as they propelled their great silvery bodies inland.” That was a time when as many as 20,000 steelhead were returning to Central Coast streams, estimates Don Baldwin, a California Department of Fish and Wildlife Environmental Scientist for Steelhead Habitat and Population Assessment in San Luis Obispo County. “Today, there are less than 500,” Don says.

It’s easy to lump steelhead in with other species and assume that the population crashed because of overfishing. But steelhead’s demise in the county came from other human activity. That’s because this trout is a unique type of fish.

Technically, steelhead trout and rainbow trout are the same species, Oncorhynchus mykiss. Both spawn in freshwater. But, while rainbow remain inland after they hatch, steelhead make their way to the ocean before returning to their spawning grounds. It’s a trait they share with salmon, making them both anadromous fish.

Human activity on the Central Coast has interrupted that journey. John Piatti Jr. remembers catching steelhead well into the 1980s, but he knew then that the population was already compromised.

Though securing and maintaining funds for research and restoration is always a challenge, some significant efforts are being made to protect the county’s steelhead and its habitat. Projects include removing physical barriers to migration, harvesting rainwater to maintain water levels and improving riparian corridors.

“The loss of steelhead may not directly affect other species, but would show a collapse of the ecosystem,” Don explains.
