Orvis president Simon Perkins, Mike Beard, owner of Northwest Outfitters, and TU’s Tom Reed and Greg McReynolds took part in an online roundtable discussion on why four dams on the Lower Snake River must be removed to ensure that roughly half of the salmon and steelhead in the Lower 48 aren’t lost within the next 20 years. You can check out a recorded version of that discussion here.
Angling Trade and TROUT magazine editor Kirk Deeter calls this “one of the defining issues for this generation of anglers,” and TROUT dedicated most of its Fall 2021 edition to the Snake.
