NormanMcLean Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 An incredibly thoughtful response. Please read. http://flyfishalberta.com/jensenflyfishing/ram-river-a-response-to-the-angling-mgt-survey/ 2 Quote
DonAndersen Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 Bait and switch. The logic is "you have to allow harvest" In the event that the biologist haven't noticed,, the population of Alberta is ever growing. The pressures on our resources are extreme. There is little to no room for more killing. Don 4 Quote
TroutPanther Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 Thanks for sharing that link. Just completed the survey. What a bizarre approach. If it isn't native to the drainage, it has no value? To squander such a unique resource would be foolish. Might as well rotenone the bow and restock it with native cutties and bulls by extension of their logic. 3 Quote

BurningChrome Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Another survey as part of the North Central Native Trout recovery, but this one is specifically for the Ram. https://talkaep.alberta.ca/north-central-native-trout-recovery/survey_tools/ram-river-public-survey 1 Quote

Just completed the survey. I imagine they put this up after getting a lot of blowback on the original survey re: their proposal to allow harvest on the Ram. This Ram-specific one is very straightforward, with only 2 maps to look at and without needing to read a huge proposal. I'd encourage everyone to fill out and support C&R on the entirety of the Ram.

mtnflytime Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Thank you for posting the new survey, I just completed it. Quote
FlyFishingEMT Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 The Ram will not support anything but C&R and even C&R is taking its toll but as mentioned in the article government needs to address the bigger issues such as atv use, cattle grazing, mining, forestry and O&G exploration in the Ram and many other Central Alberta rivers/streams. Dave has some pretty good ideas that would make a lot more sense than the proposed approach. It is a special fishery that deserves to be carefully managed. Lots of prime looking rivers in Central are void of fish and it isn't due to angling pressure. 1 1 Quote
