TUCSC June News August 2020 BECAUSE I LIKE TO FISH TROUT UNLIMITED CENTRAL SIERRA CHAPTER 279 Sierra Nevada Meadows and CA Inland Trout Habitat Restoration Sierra Nevada meadows are a key habitat for California’s inland wild and/or native trout while also acting as a headwater source for downstream ecosystems. There’s approximately 280,000 acres of meadows in the Sierra Nevada, of which 50% is considered to be degraded or poor condition. Much of this degradation is due to past land use practices such as logging, mining, and overgrazing making impacted meadows less resilient to climate change, drought and other varying environmental conditions. The most common characteristic of a degraded meadow is a deeply incised and straightened stream channels which rapidly transport water and sediment downstream during snowmelt. This leaves less water for trout in the late summer and early fall and creates reduced and poor habitat quality. Over the past 30 years, restoring meadows has popularized with techniques ranging from simple tools such as livestock fencing and willow plantings to more intensive treatments such as “plug and ponds.” For the last 10 years TU California staff has worked in the field of meadow restoration in developing the “science” around the practice as well as on-the-ground application. Our Dry Meadow, Sequoia science team has developed a variety of planning tools to help guide staff and agency partners in prioritizing areas for restoration and predicting project benefits. In application, our staff has focused efforts on those areas either currently inhabited by or within the range of native endemic trout, including CA golden trout, Kern River rainbow trout, Eagle Lake rainbow trout and Lahontan cutthroat trout. Some of our primary areas of focus are described below. For further information on specific project areas please contact: Jessica Strickland, CA Inland Trout Program Director, [email protected] unless otherwise noted. Sequoia National Forest: 8 meadow restoration project sites that have all completed planning and currently funded for construction. Construction to initiate Fall 2020 and continue through 2023. These sites are all within Kern River rainbow trout or CA golden August 2020 trout range. Post-construction will include activities such as vegetation planting, temporary fence installation and signage, all of which can incorporate volunteers. These sites are located approximately 1-1.5 hours north of Kernville upstream of Johnsondale Bridge and include popular recreational fisheries such as Troy (Fish Creek) meadow. Sierra National Forest: 9 meadow restoration projects in the headwaters of the San Juaquin, identified by the Forest Service as in critical need of restoration. These meadows are in planning phase and TU has partnered with the Forest Service to complete planning and pre- construction monitoring. Planning phase monitoring may incorporate volunteers in field sampling and future construction phases will incorporate volunteers for activities similar to above-mentioned Sequoia meadows. These meadows are located primarily near Bass and Shaver Lakes. Inyo National Forest: 12 meadow sites totaling over 2,500 acres located within or just adjacent to Golden Trout Wilderness. These sites all have CA golden trout and have been selected by the Inyo National Forest and Trout Unlimited for planning and design in preparation for implementation. These meadows include popular recreational fisheries, including: Mulkey, Casa Vieja, Monache complex and Strawberry Meadow. This project was just funded in June 2020 so volunteer opportunities will begin in 2021 and should include assistance with field monitoring and survey work. In future implementation phase, there will be large-scale opportunity to assist with vegetation plantings, stream stabilization and other activities. These volunteer opportunities would require extensive hiking and/or mule pack in and overnight stay. Lassen National Forest: Trout Unlimited has been in Eagle Lake rainbow trout recovery for over a decade which includes several meadow restoration projects along Pine Creek, a spawning tributary. Confluence Meadow and Eagle Lake rainbow trout. Volunteer opportunities vary by year but include invasive brown trout removal, vegetation planting and assistance with field monitoring work. Project contact: Tiffanee Hutton, CA Inland Trout Restoration Project Manger, [email protected] Jessica Strickland of the Trout Unlimited California Council, Troy Meadow, Golden Trout Stream working out of Truckee California, is the California Inland Trout Program Director and an avid fly fisher . Among other initiatives she is currently working on Meadow Restoration in the Sierra Mountains and has graciously provided us with information about the program.

  • Mountain Lakes Guide: Absaroka, Beartooth & Crazies
    2021 MOUNTAIN LAKES GUIDE Silver Lake ABSAROKA - BEARTOOTH & CRAZY MOUNTAINS Fellow Angler: This booklet is intended to pass on information collected over many years about the fishery of the Absaroka-Beartooth high country lakes. Since Pat Marcuson began surveying these lakes in 1967, many individuals have hefted a heavy pack and worked the high country for Fish, Wildlife and Parks. They have brought back the raw data and personal observations necessary to formulate management schemes for the 300+ lakes in this area containing fish. While the information presented here is not intended as a guide for hiking/camping or fishing techniques, it should help wilderness users to better plan their trips according to individual preferences and abilities. Fish species present in the Absaroka-Beartooth lakes include Yellowstone cutthroat trout, brook trout, rainbow trout, golden trout, arctic grayling, and variations of cutthroat/rainbow/golden trout hybrids. These lake fisheries generally fall into two categories: self-sustaining and stocked. Self-sustaining lakes have enough spawning habitat to allow fish to restock themselves year after year. These often contain so many fish that while fishing can be fast, the average fish size will be small. The average size and number of fish present change very little from year to year in most of these lakes. Lakes without spawning potential must be planted regularly to sustain a fishery. Standard stocking in the Beartooths is 50-100 Yellowstone cutthroat trout fingerlings per acre every eight years. Special situations may call for different species, numbers, or frequency of plants. For instance, lakes with heavy fishing pressure tend to be stocked more often and at higher densities.

MAKE THE CALL: 1-800-TIP-MONT FISH IDENTIFICATION KEY If you don’t know, let it go! CUTTHROAT TROUT are frequently mistaken for Rainbow Trout (see pictures below): 1. Turn the fish over and look under the jaw. Does it have a red or orange stripe? If yes—the fish is a Cutthroat Trout. Carefully release all Cutthroat Trout that cannot be legally harvested (see page 10, releasing fish). BULL TROUT are frequently mistaken for Brook Trout, Lake Trout or Brown Trout (see below): 1. Look for white edges on the front of the lower fins. If yes—it may be a Bull Trout. 2. Check the shape of the tail. Bull Trout have only a slightly forked tail compared to the lake trout’s deeply forked tail. 3. Is the dorsal (top) fin a clear olive color with no black spots or dark wavy lines? If yes—the fish is a Bull Trout. Carefully release Bull Trout (see page 10, releasing fish). MONTANA LAW REQUIRES: n All Bull Trout must be released immediately in Montana unless authorized. See Western District regulations. n Cutthroat Trout must be released immediately in many Montana waters. Check the district standard regulations and exceptions to know where you can harvest Cutthroat Trout.

  • Facts and Q&A About the 90-Day Finding On
    California Golden Trout Protection Not Warranted Questions and Answers Prepared by the Sacramento Fish and Wildlife Office, August 2011 Photo Credit: Kevin Aceituno, USFWS Q: What is a California golden trout? A: California golden trout is a subspecies of rainbow trout. Formerly known as Volcano Creek golden trout, they are well known for their bright coloration, red to red-orange belly and cheeks, bright gold lower sides, a central lateral band that is red-orange, and a deep olive-green back. California golden trout can reach lengths of 7 to 8 inches. California golden trout have been known to live as long as nine years, and they commonly reach six to seven years old. This is extremely old for stream-dwelling trout, and is likely due to the short growing season, high densities of fish, and a low abundance of food in these streams. These conditions create competition for scarce resources, promoting slow growth rates that lead to old ages of trout. Q: Where do they live? A: California golden trout inhabit the South Fork Kern River and Golden Trout Creek on the Kern Plateau in Tulare County, California. Both were once part of the same stream system, but became separated by volcanic activity in the region thousands of years ago. In Golden Trout Creek, the subspecies historically occurred from the headwaters, with the exception of headwater lakes, and the probable exception of upper reaches of some tributary streams, to a series of waterfalls where the creek joined with the Kern River. In the South Fork Kern River they historically occurred from the headwaters to the Domeland Wilderness.
