Well Jerry,
We just had our chance to rid ourselves of many of these "political nincumpoop a-holes" and we did not take advantage.
In the Feb. issue of "Fly Fisherman" magazine, on pp49, paragraph #5, it tells of the buildup of the winter run of chinooks going from a low of 186 in 1994 to a return of over 9000 in 2003....WITH the presence of our "invasive" stripers and LM's.
I DO believe that if we continue to leave it up to these PNA's to restore our fisheries rescources, [PNA's who's only interest is to put our water in a pipe and sell it!!!] our fisheries are doomed. We may as well plant and promote Northern pike to have SOMETHING to fish for. Seems DFG has proven them [northerns] to be a VERY hearty and resilient fish.
