California is in the process of restructuring its water policies to meet the needs of its population growth. The “Water Wars” have reached new proportions and fish and fishermen are losing the battle. If fishermen don’t unite and make their voices heard in the political process, we will lose millions of fish and the many benefits they bring to fishermen and to the economy.

Those who are willing to destroy California’s fish runs to serve their own interests now control California Water Policies, and the Federal Agencies in the Bush Administration.

“Water is Flowing to Farms not Fish. After 50 years of infighting, a victor has emerged in California’s water wars --- agriculture.”
