Awesome work! ❤

Excellent work!

The dam and messed up salmon & Steelhead fish ladder in the Tualatin River has got to be removed so the Silvers - Chinook - Steelhead can get up to Gales creek to Cherry Grove and far more spawning grounds

Great work guys.

You guys rock

Great work!

Megatonnes of sediment builds up behind dams in few decades. Remove the dam and most of that will wash downstream, despite efforts to stabilize it with plants. It will smother spawning beds and do other damage, and while the river will-probably, eventually, mostly-clean itself, it only takes one year’s total failure to destroy a spawning run. Suggestion? Build one suction dredge that can be taken apart, transported by truck, and reassembled behind a dam scheduled for removal; we should be able to schedule dam removals so that one or two machines will do for all. Dredge most of the sediment out from behind the dam, and it will not be there to wash downstream. I don’t know where/how we dispose of all that, if it’s contaminated with agricultural and other chemicals-but then we don’t want to let that contaminate the downstream river bottom anyway. Where it is clean enough, it’s silt, very rich soil, and it could be sold to farmers or as a component of potting soil. There are no wastes, only un-utilized resources.

Doing a dam good job

thank god for all your effortss

the back ground music is to loud or the speakers are not loud enough. music should be more subdued

Seems like a win-win for these types of projects

Awesome work! I hope you do more.

Now remove the dam at the Great Falls of the Missouri, what a disgrace.

The really sad aspect is that, had authorities and companies not been so stubborn about their "vision of progress", such small dams could have been mitigated by adding stones and gravel against their wall to allow fish to pass. Decades wasted in senseless ideological fight... 😑

It's certainly nice to know they named a dam after Linda.

Don't you just love how the people who DESTROYED the rivers , Come back and CONGRATULATE each other on SAVING IT 🤣😂🤣....You couldn't make this shit up 🤡

We know more than Mother Nature. Trust me. We could have either just simply knocked it down and walked off or just left it alone. Nature didn't care either way but we get to feel good about it. (This is simple job creation and we're mesmerized by it like it is magic or a religious event.) **Just a different point of view. Neither right nor wrong.**

Less talk more action !

Well done to all involved it is so lovely now!!!

I just don't understand why these people have to come up with all these things as a reasons and justifications to remove the dam. It no longer serves a purpose, remove it. simples! All the rest of it is just waffle and job justification, If we spent half the money we spent on so called experts on real remedial activity we would clean up the environment in half the time.

Great job. Onto the next dam upstream. It seems like you could remove a dam each week. the science is in, no need for endless REPETITIVE studies, just go for it.

all these people having fun ripping out small dams are you also reintroducing beavers to the aria and letting them build back more porous dams or are you just having fun returning a water way to another man made modification

How are beaver dams good but human dams bad?

Comparing this dam to a usual log jam.

Yeah, our country is just littered with little dams which were built over 100 years ago. They aren't very useful these days so many of them are being ripped out !

Nice, i wonder how many thousands of dollars were wasted tossing some downed trees in the creek. Literally. how many thousands of dollars got spent doing that portion.....

Ya the world is drying up why keep dams full of water anywhere, these people are the ones to thank 😂

Very nice 👍❤

Well done. If you unbuild it, they will come.

So, this is a case of Riparian Repair...nice.

Now reintroduce beaver to the area.

Thank you.

We need to do something about the factory fishing in the ocean. Asia has hundreds of large fishing vessels stripping the ocean clean of life. Out of sight, out of mind until they have killed everything and return home empty.

Europe removed 500 dams last year. Let's keep going.

Why was the dam built?

WELL DONE !

So satisfying to see waterways freed. Congratulations!

Thank you for all you do!!

Sorry I have not sent photos yet. My daughter has to load them from her Canon to her Gmail since somehow she erased my Gmail off my computer. We are also in the process of our manufactured home park destroying wildlife by spraying Crossbow on trees, my hull and my 15 yo plants not only killing them, creating serious firehazards, especially during severe tstorms and worse about 5.ft from Roberts Creek which dumps directly into the South Umpqua River. I cannot afford an attorney. In addition our drunken neighbor with a stick swinging in my face telling me he will kill me very soon! Our new manager 😊has been closed for at least 2 weeks because he has a new baby with no.replacement. So sorry!

A question about using the non-sip loop. I find in 4X and down it holds well, but anything in 5X or higher and I'm in trouble, because the loop just fails on decent sized fish. I've tried sitting and tying that thing according to the directions on bunch of YT videos, but whenever I test it out it just doesn't hold up compared with a regular knot, like an Orvis knot. Can I tie a good, strong non-slip loop using fine tippet? Thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated, thank you:)

Thanks for helping our rivers.
