The following message is from JD Richey regarding a proposed closure of the American River for the months of February and March for fishing. We have to act today if we want our input in - Dave Hurley
We’ve got until Monday, Jan. 28 to get our letters in opposing the American River Fishing Closure!

Okay, folks, we’ve got to act now to save the steelhead season on the American! As I noted a couple days back, a mis-informed fly fishing club has submitted a proposal to the CA Fish & Game Commission to get the river closed for the next 2 months.
The only way to stop this lunacy is to send a quick email or fax to:
Mr. Richard B. Rogers, President
California Fish & Game Commission
FAX 916-653-5040
email: fgc@dfg.ca.gov
Please take a quick moment to write a short letter explaining why you think closing the river is a bad idea. Maybe something about how the real problem is enforcement (lack thereof) and mis-management of water by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (the same guys that brought us the Prospect Island debacle).
GET THOSE LETTERS IN PRONTO — WE ONLY HAVE UNTIL MONDAY!!
If we all do this, we’ll get this thing turned around.
Thanks!
