Biologist Doug Killam made the find while conducting a
survey of spawned-out fall-run salmon on lower Battle Creek near
the Northern California town of Red Bluff. (Salmon die after they
spawn.)
"I have counted tens of thousands of salmon during my career, and this is the biggest I have ever seen," Killam said.
"When alive, it could have weighed more than the largest Chinook officially recorded in California, an 88-pound fish caught in the Sacramento River."
Tehama County was formed from parts of Butte, Colusa, and Shasta Counties in 1856.The county is named for the City of Tehama. The origin of the name is not known. Suggested possible roots are the Arabic word tehama ("hot low-lands"),the Spanish word tejamanil (shingle), or "high water" in the dialect of localNative Americans.
The first permanent settlers in the area that is now Tehama County were Robert Hasty Thomes, Albert Gallatin Toomes, William George Chard, and Job Francis Dye. The four men were each given land grants by the government of Mexico in 1844. Thomes received Rancho Saucos, Toomes received Rancho Rio de los Molinos, Chard received Rancho Las Flores, and Dye received Rancho Primer Cañon o Rio de Los Berrendos.
Later in the same year Josiah Belden received Rancho Barranca Colorado. Famous early figures include Kit Carson, who took part in a fight that gave name to Bloody Island and Battle Creek,Jedediah Smith, John Fremont, and William B. Ide, the first and only president of the California Republic.
Things to do in Tehama County are plenty in every city such
as Red Bluff, Corning, Los Molinos, Tehama and Manton. Tehama
County is located on the Sacramento River at the north end of the
Central Valley in Northern California. Red Bluff, the largest city
in the county, is home to the Red Bluff Round Up,one
of the largest rodeos in the west.
There is so much to enjoy when it comes to nature in Tehama County. Several national forests and parks make their way into Tehama County, including a portion of Lassen Volcanic National Park, where visitors can see the largest plug dome volcano in the world. On the west side of the county is Mendocino National Forest and Shasta-Trinity National Forest including the Yolla-Bolly - Middle Eel Wilderness. On the east side is Lassen National Forest including Ishi Wilderness.
Tehama county has wildlife areas and game refuges for wildlife viewing and hunting in season. Fishing and other water activities abound, and the county is surrounded by beautiful mountain ranges, where hikers, backpackers, and bikers can revel in the scenery.
The Wild Life Area 46,862 acres of oak woodland, grassland and chaparral. There are also rugged canyons throughout the area. This area is a winter range for black-tailed deer. Wild pigs and turkeys are also found here in Tehama County.
The Nomlaki (Central Wintun) and Southern Yana people originally inhabited the area along the banks of the Sacramento River where Red Bluff was built. Most of the native population of the area are thought to have died in a malaria epidemic or smallpox epidemic brought by trappers in the early 1830s, shortly before white settlers arrived in the 1840s.
While the Spanish army officer Gabriel Moraga explored the southern Sacramento Valley in 1808, it was not until the 1821 expedition of Luís Antonio Argüello that Europeans recorded a visit to the Red Bluff area.
On April 10, 1828, Jedediah Smith passed through on the way to Oregon. In 1843 Peter Lassen, John Bidwell, and John Burheim came in pursuit of horse thieves; Lassen then applied for a Mexican land grant. The first house where Red Bluff now is was an adobe put up late in 1849 by John Myers, who conducted it for a short time as a hotel.
In the following spring Mr. Cooper erected a small adobe there, and A.M. Dibble built another at the "Adobe" Ferry, one mile (1.6 km) north. This adobe has been incorrectly associated with William B. Ide, whose home was south of Red Bluff. Settlement began in 1850 when Sashel Woods and Charles L. Wilson began laying out a town called Leodocia. It was known by that name and Covertsburg until 1854, when maps showed the community as Red Bluffs.
