Effective Dates: Sept.16 through Nov. 30, 2013
Species Affected: All game fish
Location: From 100' above Shipherd Falls to Moore Bridge.
Reason for Action: A minimum escapement of 500 wild summer steelhead is needed to allow the opening of the catch-and-release fishery above Shipherd Falls. Based on recent survey results and average run timing, the wild escapement is projected to be about 300 fish, which is well below the escapement objective.
