HERE’S YOUR CHANCE TO HELP A FEW YEARS AGO WHEN THE RINEHART CASE LOST IN THE CALIFORNIA SUPREME COURT, AND THEN WAS APPEALED TO THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT; THE UNITED STATES SOLICITOR GENERAL RECOMMENDED THAT THE RINEHART CASE NOT BE HEARD – PARTLY BECAUSE THERE WAS A CLEARER CASE OVER THE SAME ISSUES DEVELOPING […]
From our good friend Kerby Jackson….who, like us have been trying to warn the fishermen this was coming. Gee, if we could all just join hands and fight these tyrannical groups together…….. https://cdfgnews.wordpress.com/2019/02/07/commission-accepts-listing-petition-requires-closure-of-some-recreational-fishing-in-klamath-basin/?fbclid=IwAR0qN_CI2Xy1dYUqX79QBm1OuZsfBiBz3Vl-zDRJKzjDrfq8y1I98ZMyjNU
We have been in continuous communication with the miners in Washington State over yet another attempt to ban suction dredging. This is the third bill in three years and this one is brought forth by Trout Unlimited. This video sent to us from Justin Karr shows just how effective it is to have the politicians […]

We have penned a letter to the Senate Natural Resource Committee about the California Water Board having their staff cut literally days before they were to go public with […]
Quite a day at the International Sportsman Expo in Sacramento today!We partnered with two non-profit fishing groups as they are fed up with over-regulation and see the benefit in uniting like we do. We spent over an hour with CA Department of Fish and Wildlife explaining how a suction dredge works, the benefit to the […]
We are actively working on part 2 and 3 of the Alaska dredge trip and have completed shooting the “how to file a mining claim” video series. This video will show from start, to finish how to research, file, mark and maintain a mining claim. We are excited to have completed filming and release should […]
