Would it not be a good idea to have a hatchery with stock to supplement fisheries after low water bad recruitment years. [/quote]
NO, NO, NO! It would be a terrible idea at a place like Yuba, or any other fishery that stunts. Those low water bad recruitment years result in fewer fish recruited into the population and better growth for those remaining….that low water is even better if it means that some of those in the lake die.
