James Stone

Hogan and James sit down and talk about the state of Nor Cal water storage as well as how the current winter is setting us up for the coming season. Then they get into the state and future of our salmon fisheries. While salmon are not always high on fly angler's list of species they are important to the health of many of our more popular fisheries ie. Trout and Steelhead. As well as being the most politically powerful fish in that the economic impact and angler participation is the highest among fish of concern in our state.

NCGASA President James Stone voices his frustration with HSRG (Hatchery Science Review Group) and policies around the Feather River Fish Hatchery.

Travel with us on our audio journey from the headwaters of the Sacramento River and Shasta Resevoir, to the Delta as we discuss the state of our current and future fisheries with Captain James Stone.  James brings a wealth of knowledge that helped lay a solid foundation for the issues we face in our local Northern California watersheds. James is the president of the Nor-Cal Guides and Sportsmen's Association (NCGASA) and a local fishing/hunting guide. The NCGASA is an organization that represents the “Sportsmens Voice” of Northern California. They have appointed regional program managers throughout California that represent the voice of anglers, hunters and guides within their region's community.
