Anticipation is high for Central Valley river salmon opener
“Fishermen are seeing that restrictions on pumping water from the Delta are crucial to healthy, sustainable salmon runs,” said GGSA President Victor Gonella. “When a little of the river’s flow is allowed to carry baby salmon to sea every winter and spring you end up with healthy runs like we’re seeing this year. This translates into tens of thousands of jobs and happy salmon fishermen, not to mention a common sense balanced approach to water use in our state.” Photo of Chinook salmon courtesy of the California Department of Fish and Game.
