Water rights are a huge issue throughout the world; we're lucky in Northern Maine. Even through a very dry summer, all we at Red River had to worry about was waiting for the rain to catch back up with the rate of evaporation. Can you imagine not being able to fish some of the best trout waters in the West because the streams are completely dry?

Another Stream Video
A friend posted this video the other day; since I have both a personal and a professional connection to streams, rivers, and ecology, I wanted to pass it along. (As a side note, I've been to the Deschutes River in Oregon, whose picture flashes during the video's first 30 seconds, as part of a stream restoration class. The section I visited was still flowing.)
