    The Eel river was a great river before the drought of the late 1970s.

    The Fall King salmon on the Eel river would really take a fly.

    The eel was decimated in the 64 flood

    Unless they stop sending water to the Russian watershed it will be all for not. Not to mention in the heyday of the Russian the river would dry up in the summer. Not anymore. Smallies, largemouth and stripers all forage for the same prize we do.

    As long as this is a highly populated state and a huge agricultural place the water just won't be for the fish.

    The math the idiots running this state have is so awesome! Yea let’s build more farms in the desert and loads of homes on what used to be farm lands. When teachers would tell us to learn math because it was for out benefit it was not a joke. They knew why, so we can do basic math. It seems math does not work in the minds of this states “leaders!” But it sure does work when it comes to money. Politicians making 200K a year coming out as millionaires. That’s the problem.

    It doesn't help that the president of the California Fish and Game Commission is one of the largest Napa Valley Grape and Pot growers in the state...

    If you knew the truth you would just stop talking about it.

    We have nothing to do with what happens to the water in California, and never will.

    In 10 years you will be telling the latest generation how cool it was to actually have fish in our rivers.
