Today on Fish Talk we’re opening the discussion about beaver dams and fish weirs.
Fish Talk is a call-in show about fish on the Kuskokwim. I’m your host, Christine Trudeau, filling in for Anna Rose MacArthur.
Joining me in the studio to help find a common ground on these issues are two experts, both named Aaron, who both work for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Aaron Moses is from Toksook Bay and studied beaver dams on the Kwethluk River for many years, and Aaron Webber has run the Kwethluk and Tuluksak weirs for several seasons. Peter Atchak is translating the show into Yup'ik.
So, what do you want to know about how beaver dams and fish weirs affect fish on the Kuskokwim? Let's talk about it here on Fish Talk.
