NESTLE WATER OPEN PUBLIC MEETING IN McCLOUD OCTOBER 22ND

Mt Shasta with the classic legendary lenticular cloud. I have talked to locals that tell me in 83 years they haven't seen the mountain so bare of snow. I wonder if this is the least amount of snow in recorded history? After getting back from Chile and 34 hours of traveling from Patagonia taking planes, trains and automobiles to finally arrive back in good ole Mt Shasta. This was my first look at Mother Shasta, as I made my exit home off Abrams Lake Road.

Wading for steelhead is always fun.

Ben was ready for action!

Wolf on Copco road, he's probably very happy about the salmon runs up the Klamath River....

Nothing is better than getting out on a river and forgetting your problems.

It's that time of year again when we have to run down rivers chasing a large steelhead on a fly rod. The trick is to land the beast and stay dry...

Ben with a lunker on at 600 CFS flows on the McCloud River! The river fishes good at that level and many trout come up from Shasta Lake because of the higher flows.

Non-Native Bull Thistle. Pretty .....

Dries can be great in the foam lines now on the McCloud River.

Dry - On the rocks please!

Strong to the bone man!

Respectable for sure.

Mr. Halpren on the McCloud River catching a nice trout!

Out with guide Ron Stone, on the Lower Sac this week proved productive for Brian Halpren and his father. They plan to come back up for steelhead fishing later on in the fall.

I love those thoughtful photos, we all want to see as much we can in a photo....It's not like a logo, you can't ever make a photo or a painting too busy!

Todd, having a ball on his first day out ever fly fishing for steelhead.

Nice catch man...

Little later Chris Clark got into the action!

Nice one, the steelhead season has officially started for 2008 / 2009 season.

Oh yea! It's steelhead time Sizzlers!!

Nice form for sure Chris! Sent you some indicators in the mail...jt

Revived to live another day. It is law - You must catch and release wild steelhead.

Brady got into the action with his hook-up.

Sweet Loven Spoonful!! That's a beauty!!

Brady Clark - It was pleasure to fish with the 11 year Major League Baseball player and famous lead-off hitter. Thanks for coming to our area! Jack Trout

Fish on Chris, One on in back !! We love double and triple hook-ups, it leads to annual family reunions....

This is one fish loven riffle, I think I'll name it "Fish Loven Riffle!"..

Andrew came out from Allentown PA. He was personally referred by Greg and Alison Takata, who went fly fishing with me in Chile this past year. Little did he know the Klamath was on wild fire!!

That was great, but I'm just happy to be out here fishing!

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

Whoo Yoo!!

And then he landed into a total lunker that took him down people!

Then I saw him pass near the surface and I could tell it was a Chinook Salmon (King) caught on a fly!

He made another dive and another head shake and after about 20 minutes we finally landed the beast!

Andrew's arm was about to fall off by then... What a freshy - fresh-fresh! A jack by all means, I say. Nice hook -up on a fly rod.

Leaping lizards Clancy, he cleared it! So this is what they were talking about back in Omaha. Flowing rivers, jumping fishes and mighty neighborly weather if I don't mind me saying so....

Because the flows were maintained at 1000 CFS throughout the summer, the Klamath River is much more healthy this season. There is still an un-healthy bloom of Blue-Green Algae, but for the most part, keeping the flows up has proved to be a success this year. This was the first year in 7 years the flows were maintained all summer at higher flow levels, and I am seeing more healthy fish, that seem to be arriving here a little early.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

That's a good thing when the Klamath River is healthy and fishing is good. The economy benefits as well as the reputation of the Klamath River and the entire eco system. But best of all the beloved salmon and steelhead are happy, soldiering their way up this very special tributary that flows west into the Pacific Ocean. It is finally raining, we have not had a significant rain storm since June 21st, 2008. The rain is warmly welcomed, I hope it rainsfor a week!

Hello Jack, Just wanted to make sure that you got my phone call at which time I left you with my credit card number for reserving 10/17. We are thinking about renting a house in Weed is that too far out of the area for what we have planned floating down the Klamath from Iron Gate Dam? What other areas could my son and I fish around Weed? Thanks Patrick Wolfe

It was great to finally meet you and to get out on the water. I had a great time. Lots of opportunities and some great catches. I'll have to work on that quick upward line set. I'll have to get my son out and we'll have some real fun. I'm sure David will enjoy you humor and personality. When I was in dental school I had a professor who had a great philosophy on life. It was "Illegitimus Non Around" which is Latin for "Don't let the Bastards get you down!" Keep that in mind as we wind our way to the election. People will get their heads out of their asses and vote the bastards out of office. I'm going to spend the off season tying flies and reading your blogs. That should get me through till Spring. Enjoy your life with that fine women of yours. A good loving women is hard to find and we both have been blessed in that regard.

Jack, So sorry to hear about Chailyn. My wife and I lost Jacob one day before his due date in 1995. I know first hand that nothing anybody says is going to make it easier for you and Carola right now, but I will tell you it does get better. This won't make any sense at all and may even sound a bit morbid (I'm sorry), but I wouldn't trade the experience for anything. In a painful and strange way, it was one of the most beautiful things I've ever experienced. Nancy and I drew closer, our eyes opened up to all the WONDERFUL people who surrounded us, and our son Levi was born two years later (he would not have been born if we hadn't lost Jacob as we'd decided two kids was our limit). God does work in ways none of us understand. I thank Him today for giving us Jacob the way he did, and for bringing Levi into the world. My prayers are with you and Carola.

Wolves in California?

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

In discussing the history of wolves in the southwestern United States, Brown (1984) reported that despite an abundance of what appear to be suitable habitats; virtually no wolves have been seen in California. Schmidt (1991), however, came to a different conclusion based on his review of historical records. He found clear records from 1750 to 1850 indicating that wolves were present in the Coastal Range from San Diego to Sacramento when these areas were first being explored and settled. From 1850-1900, wolves were seen in Shasta County and in the central Sierra Nevada. By the middle of the 1920's wolves seem to have disappeared from California. One was trapped in San Bernardino County in 1922. Another, the last to be captured in the state, was trapped in Lassen County in 1924. Although the US Forest Service estimated that some 50 wolves existed in the Lassen, Tahoe, Eldorado, Stanislaus, Angeles, and Rouge River National Forests as recently as 1937, there was little evidence that any wolves were actually present. Schmidt concluded that all of the wolves trapped in recent years have been ones released from captivity.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

In 1984, Schmidt noted that there were two important reasons for trying to determine the past distribution of wolves in California. First, the possibility of reintroducing wolves into the state has frequently been discussed, and information about their historical range could be useful in this debate. A feasibility study for the restoration of the wolf to the Klamath-Siskiyou region of north-central California is being funded by Defenders of Wildlife and conducted by the Conservation Biology Institute. Second, extirpation of the wolf may have had an important impact on the ecosystems from which they were eliminated, which might help to explain the current distribution of species such as elk, deer, and coyotes. Reintroduction of wolves might be expected to move those populations towards their historic levels.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

Today, there is another reason for interest in the wolf's former range. Wolves from nearby Idaho have recently been seen in Oregon, suggesting a natural dispersal route that could extend into California, Nevada, and neighboring states. The current wolf reclassification plan proposed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service would remove protection from wolves that enter California, and exclude the state from federal wolf recovery efforts. With the help of concerned citizens, we are hoping to bring the wolf back to the wild in several states across the country.

Since James B. Black Powerhouse was shut down on September 19 due to a leak at the penstock, significant progress has been made toward repairing the problem and returning the powerhouse to operation. The repair plan is to weld a re-enforcing pipe section around the penstock in place of the cracked coupling that was leaking. Welding on the repair section began yesterday, October 1. If repairs go as planned the powerhouse should return to operation by next week.

Current flow in the Lower McCloud River at the Ah-Di-Na gage (MC-1) is approximately 700 cfs. A storm is currently forecast for Friday and Saturday. Depending on storm runoff, this flow could increase.

Alan is our friend with the gorgeous house on the Futelafue river, right before the river enters the gorge. I hope all is well with you and that October fly fishing is great. I would fish the Klamath River but I got so cold last year with wet feet on the Trinity. Swapping boots with you really helped. Now all I need back is my wading stick I left in your boat. We'll be up to get it!

That's the thinking up here along the border between California and Oregon, where 12 sparsely populated, thickly forested counties in both states want to break away and generate the 51st star on the nation's flag - the state of Jefferson.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

You can see the signs of discontent from Klamath Falls to Dunsmuir, where green double-X "Jefferson State" flags hang in scores of businesses. You can hear the talk of revolution at lunch counters and grocery lines, where people grumble that politicians to the north and south don't care.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

You can even hear the dissent on the radio, where 21 area FM stations broadcast from Oregon into California under the banner of "Jefferson Public Radio."

"We have nothing in common with you people down south. Nothing," said Randy Bashaw, manager of the Jefferson State Forest Products lumber mill in the Trinity County hamlet of Hayfork. "The sooner we're done with all you people, the better."

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

Talking about secession has been a quasi-joking conversational saw since 1941, when five counties in the area started things by actually declaring themselves - briefly - to be the state of Jefferson. But now, with the economy in trouble and unemployment soaring, the idea of greater independence is getting its most serious consideration since World War II.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

Locals complain that federal and state regulators have hampered the fishing and timber industries to protect forestlands and endangered species such as sucker fish and the spotted owl. Jobs are so scarce that the median income in the area is only two-thirds that of the rest of the state. Most water from the rainy Shasta region is shipped south, with little economic benefit to the area. Even the California sales tax draws sneers.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

If they ran their own state, the reasoning goes, folks in Siskiyou, Modoc and the other potential Jefferson counties could whack the red tape from both federal and state officials and get rid of the sales tax.

Seeking signatures The Grange Hall of Yreka, a farm-based service organization, is activating 51 of its brethren halls in the area to collect 1 million signatures to have a statehood advisory measure put on the California ballot. Tony Intiso, a runoff candidate in the Nov. 4 election for Siskiyou County Board of Supervisors, has pledged to force the issue and is running campaign ads calling for regional freedom. The number of registered users of a decade-old Web site advocating partition has suddenly shot from dozens to more than 900.

"Heck yeah, it's a darn good idea," said Richard Mitchell, manager of the Cooley & Pollard Hardware Store on Miner Street, the main drag in the blink-and-you-miss-it town of Yreka. "Those liberal people down south don't understand us at all, and if there was a vote today to form a new state, it would pass in a heartbeat.

Movement began in 1941 Mitchell also posts a copy of the original declaration of Jefferson independence, drafted in 1941 by the angry miners and loggers who pushed for secession over the appalling condition of roads. That movement - the coverage of which earned Chronicle reporter Stanton Delaplane a Pulitzer Prize - lasted just two weeks before the Pearl Harbor attack, when the movement dissolved in the name of national unity.

"It started out as a big joke back then, but then some folks got real serious and before long they had elected a governor and all that," said Frances Wacker, 95, whose husband, the late George Wacker, was one of the 1941 Jefferson movement leaders.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

"I think some folks have become serious again and think they have something going."

Sixty-seven years ago, Wacker recalled, locals were frustrated because they were ignored when they complained to lawmakers that they couldn't easily ship copper and timber south to ports and markets on the axle-cracking roads. The roads have improved since then - the same trip now takes four hours, not the eight of 1941 - but the unhappiness has not.

"It's not rocket science to see why it makes sense, and how we could do it," said Brian Petersen, a landscaper who runs the main online forum advocating statehood, www.jeffersonstate.com. "The capitols of California and Oregon ignore us. We want out.

"If you want any chance of fixing things, sometimes you have to break the system," said Leo Bergeron, master of Yreka's Greenhorn Grange Hall and past master of the statewide, agriculturally oriented Grange service club. "Now, we have to break the system."

For years, he said, locals have proudly claimed Jefferson is a "state of mind" born of living in an expanse of forestlands and hamlets that is roughly the size of Wales and has about the same population as San Francisco. Redding, with a population of 80,000, is the closest thing to a metropolis. And with 60,000 cattle, Siskiyou County has 15,000 more bovines than it does people. Along the way, tourist-minded locals have come up with the flags, an official state cow ("Moo-dona," a huge sculpture alongside Interstate 5) and an official beer (microbrewed in Etna). The legend of Big Foot is also big around here.

But Bergeron's not playing around.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

"If you do it seriously, some people will think you're a kook," said Bergeron, who spearheads the Grange effort. "But 9 out of 10 people have an interest in this - and we need to reach the ones who are really serious."

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

Working toward '09 measure Bergeron's first goal is to gather 1,200 signatures in Siskiyou County to put an advisory secession initiative on the county ballot in 2009. At the same time, he is urging the 51 Grange Halls in Jefferson territory, and those on the mailing list of www.jeffersonstate.com, to gear up for collecting 1 million signatures to take the advisory measure statewide.

"We'll need the approval of both states and the federal government, but it can be done," he said. "And even if we don't become a new state, we will have made a statement and can at least get some more independence in our own affairs."

Gail Fiorini-Jenner, co-author of two books on the state of Jefferson, said the almost 900,000 people who live in the territory aren't hicks. Just feisty. And that, she said, is not new: Since the 1850s, there have been similar attempts to create the states of Klamath and Shasta.

SANDY -- As dams go, Marmot Dam on the Sandy River wasn't huge. But now that it's gone, its impact is turning out to be enormous.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

The removal of the nearly 50-foot-high dam by Portland General Electric in October gave scientists perhaps their best chance to watch as a river digested a vast amount of rocks, sand and gravel collected over many decades in a reservoir.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

Some had worried that sediment piled behind the dam would suffocate salmon and block tributaries downstream. It did nothing of the sort. In fact, the river has since digested the equivalent of about 150 Olympic-size swimming pools full of sediment -- without a hiccup.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

"Never has this much sediment been released at once into such an active and hungry river," said Gordon Grant, a research hydrologist with the U.S. Forest Service's Pacific Northwest Research Station. He has studied the dam removal and given presentations on the results at conferences from Sacramento to Venice, Italy.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

He was just invited to give his Marmot Dam talk in China.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

"There's a global interest right now in river restoration," Grant said. "Marmot is certainly one of the best-documented and most spectacular examples of dam removal in the sense that the river was allowed to process the material itself."

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

The river has so far removed about half the material backed up behind the dam. It's difficult to tell that a dam once blocked the popular salmon stream. The river shoves and piles gravel and cuts into the shore the way a healthy river should.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

Scientists were especially impressed with how rapidly the river scoured the sediment away. Some models predicted the river would need two to five years to carry off half the sediment pile, but it did so in months.

http://www.jacktrout.com/trinity.html***** HAD A CANCELLATION FOR OCTOBER 4TH & ...

Jack Trout

Though some officials had worried that the sediment would linger and pose an obstacle to fish, federally protected coho salmon were swimming upriver the day after the dam crumbled. Salmon spawned in the river as they always have.
