Maybe some of you have seen posting signs along the river at Greenhills near Barree? We contacted the RV park management and they told us the signs are aimed at hunters and others, not fishermen. They are well aware of the Public Fishing Easements and have no intention to block fishermen. Even offered to allow us to post Fishing Allowed signs with theirs. Come to our LJRA meeting on the 10th of Sept. for a thorough discussion of public fishing easements. Marzonis Restaurant, 7pm. Bill

Matt Harrar The "beds" you saw in Bowmans Creek were likely made by stone rollers. These fish, look like chubs. They pick up stones and carry them to make these piles, We have many such piles in the Little j.

Despite a valiant try by PFBC and Clearwater Conservancy and LJRA (yes we were vital to the effort through our advocacy), tract 3, which contained the river access and the yellow house, was lost to a higher bidder with very deep pockets. The Total paid for the Morrow properties was $4.5 million, far more than expected. Clear Water Conservancy's bid of $1.3 million for Tract 3. This bid was well over the appraised value but fell short when an individual, "Dave" , a fly fisherman, who simply "wants to protect the river from development", bid $1.35 million.
I spoke with Dave after the auction and he told me he grew up in Alexandria and, although he lives elsewhere now, he intends to fish the Little j often, now that he owns part of it. Dave also said that he had just returned from Manitoba where he fly fished for brook trout. I gave him my LJRA contact information and asked him to consider a Public Fishing Easement for at least part of the Morrow access. He said he would consider it. Bill Anderson
