Fisheries

Fishing proposal voted down

Story

From Corning Observer - Tuesday, Feb. 7, 2012

Coalition response...The California Fish and Game Commission turned its back on science by refusing to move forward with new regulations governing striped bass. As a result, predator bass will continue to gobble up juvenile salmon and other species in the Delta at a rate estimated by the Department of Fish and Game at 25-50%. Even the National Marine Fisheries Service labeled striped bass as an "important stressor warranting action." The proposed regulations would have benefited salmon and the Delta fishery and we won't achieve our ecosystem goals until stressors like striped bass are under control. Once again, politics trumped science.
