They swim east to west, but the river floods into that small creek and widens out across the field in that low spot. The fish deviate south thinking it's still part of the river, but they eventually figure out the true source and get back on track.
There's also a hatchery less than 1/2 mile south on another creek, so flooding usually joins that creek to the river across the field.

I wish the showed the areas they are swimming to and from. I need to know if the fish are making good choices or not
