We need to presure IDF&G and TU to place the egg boxes in Rainy, Palia
es, Garden, Conant, Pine, and Burnes creeks and keep the water flowing. Imagin a 90% spawing sucess rate! The fish would be jumping in our boats, no tackle needed.
As for the obivious we do not have a pure strain of cutthroat left to even be considered for any listing or Federal protection. The Feds are more worried about habitat protection than any rainbow intrusion. And IDF&G is more worried about job protection. This is a big case of IDG&F doing CYA and placing the burden on the sportsman where they need bigger sholders to carry the blame for not addressing the issue of dewatering the spawning tributarys.
