One thing that i have noticed lately is the number of campers who have decided that it is their right to build a little rock pool in the middle of a stream and use it like a backyard pool.
I spoke to one Biologist who says this has prevented some species such as bull trout from navigating upstream to their spawning grounds. i saw a lot of that on the Blackstone a couple weeks back as well, but the biologist says it is every prominent in the southern end of the province.
He is currently doing a study on the problem and hopes to have a report out by spring.
