<p class="MsoNormal">I have not seen this weir with my own eyes but have heard about it countless times. I did witness this year the lack of fall salmon and spawning redds and a lack of steelhead. Heard many stories of the great run of fish this year but very
few made it to the upper river. I have lived on the banks of this river for 27 years , have guided here and my son guides here, we know the river and we know when there are no fish.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When you consider the 250 million plus dollars spent on restoration and the allocation of funds to the tribes this activity of netting almost every fish is inexcusable. This together with the elimination of TAMWAG , self dealing ,no bid
contracts, and the TRRP self exclusion from the Brown Act should be alarming to everyone and call for an investigation of the program from a financial perspective as well as its efficacy. Trinity county board of supervisors appear to be more focused on the
government payroll in town and not enforcing laws regarding illegal pot grows rather than restoring the fishery, which was better before restoration began.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Yes our fishery and the environment is being decimated but not by who or what you think! Illegal pot grows and down river overharvesting are not congruent with restoring a fishery for the benefit of ALL of us who live here. Its time to
get some answers and work this out. I am less concerned about Sites reservoir than I am about what is happening here and now.<o:p></o:p></p>

<span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Lato",serif;color:#444444">If you are a Trinity River angler, merchant, or concerned citizen, it’s time to address the absolute decimation of fish at the Tish Tang, Hoopa Weir. Yes, it’s politically sensitive, but
the taking of (by Hoopa Fisheries’ admission 90 percent) of hatchery steelhead, coho and most of the chinook salmon is their objective.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Lato",serif;color:#444444">To top it off many of the non-native locals yard fish out of the area daily. This is not sustainable, and a disgrace to fisheries management. To see it reminds me of the past videos of Japanese
commercial fishermen clubbing dolphins caught in seine nets, but in this case salmon herded behind the weir.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
