Says they are only focusing on areas that have ESA steelhead and that have Chambers Creek fish planted. I wonder why they didn't state all plants in rivers with ESA fish? I doubt they are in favor of starting to plant coastal fish or set up broodstock progams. I'd also think that eliminating plants in the affected rivers will just make more anglers head to the remaining rivers with plants and the increased pressure would drive the non-ESA wild fish into ESA status. :dunno:
