What will It Take to Save California's Salmon?

Why should you care about saving California's salmon? For the past two years, there's been no salmon-fishing season at all -- and a third year hangs in the balance. On the next Your Call, we'll talk about the plight of salmon. The dramatic decline in salmon population has cost thousands of jobs. And it indicates bigger problems with how California manages its water. But what would it take to restore a sustainable salmon fishery on the California coast?

Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What's your role, whether you eat salmon or not? It's Your Call, with Sandip Roy and you.

Guests:
Christina Swanson--Executive Director and Chief Scientist for The Bay Institute

Caleen Sisk-Franco--Chief of the Winnemem Wintu tribe of Northern California

Larry Collins--Commercial fisherman, president of the Crab Boat Owners Association of San Francisco, and a founding member of Salmon Water Now
