Noles and Fish and Game spoke with the Mono Supervisors Tuesday about this idea. County Administrator Dave Wilbrecht said that the Board did agree a letter of support should go to the State Fish and Game Commission.

Dan Lyster will put together a letter, according to Wilbrecht get it to Fish and Game the first part of the new year. Noles had said that the restored Lower Rush Creek, between Highway 395 and Mono Lake, will remain a wild trout fishery but with the encouragement for bait fishermen to also use the waters.
