I believe they are going to consider moving the hatchery plants (f/ little white salmon?) to help this.
I thought it was interesting they are seeing a lot of URB utilize the river and are concerned about hybridization with native Tule stocks. Those stinky Tules!
Anytime the "Anti-hunters" come up in a discussion on a hunting forum I usually stop reading the post. A false dilemma is a logical fallacy where the issue at hand is "either/or". Either this group likes the exact way hunters do something or they are clearly "anti-hunters". Nonsense.

Sure there is. Most people eat meat. More and more people want to know where their meat comes from. There’s huge potential right there to grow hunting.
Hunting gives the opportunity for high quality, often Organic, meat. And you can source its origin. It’s one of the best kept secrets in this...
It doesn't bother me but I'm not the problem. Hunters represent less than 4% of the total US population. That's a pretty small minority group. The rest of the country has a certain outlook on the ongoing biodiversity crisis and they want to see Geoffrey the Giraffe eating from a tree, not being...

Between the African trophy kills that always make the news, the smoke a pack a day rhetoric, the poaching, the camp litter, the deer heads tied to truck grills, the anti science rhetoric, etc. We need to rebrand!
This is front and center to many problems in this country. With a lifestyle like you described the family unit is more prone to breaking.
Private sector unions played a big part in creating and maintaining a strong middle class. They have nosedived, while many manufacturing jobs have...
There is a GPS monitoring program in process, started 2020 and will continue for a few years. Keep an eye on this website / project. Will be some great info for quite a few species, especially mule deer...
If it’s recorded I’ll post the link. The June hogs that used to run up that river were unbelievable! From the stories I have heard anyway.

Maybe. Most other lodges in the area are booked solid months in advance, and this lodge is marketed fairly heavily. I was one of three people there - pretty sweet deal on my end.
Reminds me a fishing lodge I went to in Alaska. The guides didn't like working there and filled me in. The lodge purposefully didn't book them very busy because they wanted to take a loss and write if off. Apparently they had 5 fishing lodges around the world, owners lived in Texas. Pretty shady!
