Tens of millions of alewives are making their journey inland right now. On rivers where dams have been taken out, we're seeing these fish come back in astonishing numbers and faster than anyone anticipated. That's good for the entire ecosystem. And it's good for local towns and lobstermen who benefit from the alewife harvesting for bait that is now possible on places like the Sebasticook River where the Fort Halifax Dam was removed. We've got the chance to do this on the Kennebec where four dams

Alewives (Alosa pseudoharengus), also known as river herring, are anadromous fish, which means they spend most of their adult lives in the ocean and only return to estuaries and freshwater rivers in the spring to spawn. Alewives provide a critical food source to marine life, including marine mammals, tuna, striped bass, osprey, eagles, river otters, and herons. Once commonly found on Long Island, alewife populations have severely declined due to years of overharvesting, bycatch, poor water quali

The NRCM team recently took a field trip to the Benton Falls fish lift on the Sebasticook River to see the alewife (river herring) run. Alewives spend the majority of their lives in the ocean and only follow freshwater routes to spawn in interior lakes and ponds in the spring. This year, 6.4 million alewives have passed through the Benton fish lift, with a single day record of 476,000 passing on May 21st and a second single day record of 454,000 passing on May 25th. That’s 930,000 – nearly one m
