CalTrout and Trout Unlimited Flow Proposal for McCloud River -- Protecting the Fishery and a Quality Angling Experience

 

In 2008 CalTrout commissioned Dr. Peter Moyle and his team of fish experts at the University of California, Davis to conduct the first ever assessment of the status of California's 32 native species of trout, steelhead and salmon in California.

 

 
Sacramento, CA - This week the economic and environmental review process of the pending Klamath Restoration Agreements begin with a series of public scoping meetings in the Klamath Basin.
 

It's that time of year when the flowers bloom, the birds sing and California rivers are ripped apart with suction dredges!

 

 

CalTrout is pleased to announce the release of "SOS: California's Native Fish Crisis" by Dr. Peter Moyle, Dr. Joshua Israel and Sabra Purdy.

This CalTrout-commissioned report analyzes the state of all 32 native California salmonid species -- from coastal cuthroat to golden trout.

Help ensure that one of our nation's top academic institutions, Stanford University, is prevented from violating our public trust resources, harming endangered species such as steelhead trout, and putting the San Francisco Bay ecosystem and communities at risk.
 

Mountain meadows function as natural sponges that store water and slowly release it into groundwater aquifers and streams.  As these habitats decline stream banks lose stability, runoff occurs more quickly, erosion accelerates stream temperatures war and water tables decline.

 
For the first time ever – there is a viable, legally binding agreement to restore and protect the ecosystem, cultures, and local economies of the Klamath Basin, said supporters of two historic agreements that settle long-standing differences in the area.
 
All the fish protections in the world don't mean anything without the enforcement offered by game wardens. Here's your chance to support their work with the purchase of a California Game Warden stamp.
