Default Re: South Branch stream restoration:

That stretch used to be open to the public but it's posted now. I have to assume the work was done with a grant or some other funding. Work was done on parts of the Musky with Federal money. The first project was on the property of the Musky Trout Hatchery stretch. The last one was on the public access part of the Musky. Silting has been held in check. Fish feeding lanes were created. Trout holding areas were deepened and improved. River flow was improved and the fishing returned to areas that had deteriorated.
I haven't seen it yet, but I'm curious about how much silt was swept downstream. It won't take long for fishermen to show up downstream from there after a heavy rain to see what flushes out from the new stretch.
