I usually opt for Blue & some months I’m lucky enough to make 4 trips to Blue. A trip to the lower Mt. Fork is a rare luxury to me, but having an actual trout habitat in our State is a rare & precious commodity. It’s comforting come Spring when the Blue’s season ends. Thanks for posting this!! I took TU’s advise & wrote Inhofe. I had some trouble contacting Boren though. There’s no contact link on his site. He either never posted a link, or……..hopefully he took it down as a result of an overwhelming response to this issue. Instead he has 4 separate contact USPS address’s posted. Either way thanks again for your blog.<br /> Jon WilliamsJon Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16880821833681520678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9006067737542850060.post-88198454810190273752011-11-30T15:26:46.491-08:002011-11-30T15:26:46.491-08:00Thank you for your words Gregg.

It takes all of us together in this struggle to hang on to our vanishing fishing waters. <br /><br />Again, thank you. <br /><br />BarryBarryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10602307576524360674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9006067737542850060.post-61078704906808028112011-11-30T15:16:46.874-08:002011-11-30T15:16:46.874-08:00Barry,

But, the operation of the dam is another thing. I can see the fixture of the leak as a proper dam maintenance object, no one wants a dam to burst, even if in this case highly unlikely. But a river below a dam with a valid fishery, trout or warm water, is criminal. "Allocated" water is simply money talking, someone doesn't want to take care to give a little, be it irrigators or municipalities. We have problems here also of a similar nature and in a variety of places. I wish the best for this situation.<br /><br /><br />GreggGregghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02623587945737239141noreply@blogger.com
