For the folks who have fished the West Fork, and wondered just what it takes to repair the damage of 150 years of agriculture, logging, & grazing, here's a short photo sequence of the procedure. The section being worked on started as a 50' wide mud flat. Trout Stamp funds, camping fees at the West Fork Sports Club, landowner participation, and monies from the Kickapoo Watershed Conservation Project have been used to upgrade the West Fork from it's former status as a Class III stream, to one with a significant population of stream bred trout. |
