Salmon and Steelhead Trout use to swim
from the Pacific Ocean through the
Sacramento River and spawn in the Bear
River and Wooley Creek. Yes, right here
in Meadow Vista. Other stories tell of a
young woman going with her father to fish
for Salmon on the North Fork of the
American River, just below the City of
Colfax as recently as 1952.
History may help us to restore the fish
back into our rivers, but organizations like
Calling Back the Salmon
Where have all the salmon gone?
That is the question being asked by
Department of Fish and Game officials
and many local Sportsmen. Our once
reliable Salmon Resource has been shut
down throughout the State of California for
the first time in history. Opinions on why
the Salmon are gone range from dams,
water quality and quantity, lost spawning
grounds, hatchery program failure and
global warming. No clear answer is
obvious, but all of these and other issues
contribute to the current problem of the
collapse of the mighty King Salmon.
