Remember When

Do you remember when you could fish for, and harvest large bull trout in the Flathead River? Remember when a 20-inch westslope cutthroat wasn’t a rarity? Most folks don’t, but it wasn’t all that long ago. In the 1970s and 1980s, river anglers harvested 6,000 to 7,000 bull trout annually and some of those ran over 20 pounds. Then came the lake trout explosion in Flathead Lake in the early 1990s costing us over 15 million kokanee salmon and beginning the path to elimination of native fish from our home waters.

We now have an opportunity to rectify some of the wrongs that have faced our native fish over the last few decades. The Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes have drafted a science-based and sensible plan to reduce the bloated lake trout population in Flathead Lake, to re-balance our fishery and give our native trout some space to recover.

Please learn all you can by visiting our web page about the Draft EIS at: http://www.flatheadtu.org/FlatheadEIS.html. Flathead Valley Trout Unlimited supports the implementation of Alternative D in the EIS. Alternative D will increase the suppression of the lake trout population by only about 73,000 fish annually from a total population of 1.5 million fish. This is a reasonable, long-term action that will begin to bring balance back to the Flathead Lake fishery and will increase fishing opportunities in the River and its forks while having a minimal impact on fishing for Lake Trout.

Please help FVTU to accomplish this goal and to save our native fish populations before we begin to lose sub-populations and while there is still time to act. Send comments to lese@cskt.org in support of implementation of the DEIS. The Tribes will be accepting comments through August 5th. The native fish of the Flathead need your help today.
