2013 HIGHLIGHTS
YOUR DEDICATION TO WILD, NATIVE FISH &
THEIR HOMEWATERS
REFLECTS HOPEDear Friends,
Standing on the river’s edge, you might be lucky enough to see a redside rise to his next meal, or catch a glimpse of an adipose fin as it slices through a riffle. You may cast a fly, or just stand in wonder. But a deep breath caught somewhere between your heart and your stomach feels just the same whether its’ your first time or your hundredth. It’s why we keep coming back to our homewaters for more. It’s what gives us hope.
At Native Fish Society we don’t take that hope for granted, it drives us and motivates us. In 2013, we achieved inspiring successes in all corners of the West due to the passion and talent of our River Stewards, our staff and board, and you our supporters.
In 2014, we not only hope, we know, the health of wild fish will benefit from our efforts. Your NFS will:
1. Increase River Steward presence on watersheds across the West, using the most effective form of place-based advocacy and coupling it with the breadth, depth and diversity of programs and tools at NFS’s disposal.
2. Expand the success of the Save the Sandy campaign and hatchery reform to other key watersheds, such as The McKenzie River, Puget Sound, and Northern California’s Smith, Eel and Trinity Rivers.
3. Ensure that the wild fish measures in the Coastal Management Plan are fully funded and implemented, including monitoring, and continue to fight back on the proposed compromises that harm wild coastal salmon and steelhead.
This isn’t our job, this is our home. Wild, native fish have made our homewaters great and it’s our responsibility to ensure their future abundance. Thank you for your support!
For the love of wild + native fish,
Kaitlin Lovell Rob ElamBoard Co-Chair Board Co-Chair

NATIVE FISH SOCIETY 2013 ANNUAL REPORT
HOMEWATERS
SANDYRIVER,OR | In 2010, River Steward Spencer Miles began a grassroots campaign, Save Sandy Salmon, to raise awareness about hatchery practices that threatened the recovery of the Sandy River’s wild, native salmon. Basin wide hatchery salmon accounted for nearly 70% of the spawning fish in the watershed! In one of the largest grassroots responses in the history of Native Fish Society, over 1,000 people mailed post cards to ODFW’s Fish and Wildlife Commission and Governor Kitzhaber asking for reforms to the Sandy River’s hatchery practices in light of the precarious state of the Sandy River’s wild salmon.
Three years later, hatchery salmon represent less than 10% of the spawning salmon in the watershed, overall hatchery production has been reduced by half, hatchery programs no longer mine threatened wild fish to create their hatchery stocks and a precedent setting ruling in Oregon’s U.S. District Court found that Sandy River Hatchery programs violated federal environmental laws.
In 2013, Spencer Miles was recognized as our River Steward of the Year for his efforts on behalf of the Sandy’s wild, native fish. The court’s ruling on our Sandy case has since been utilized to drive hatchery reform actions region-wide: on Washington’s Elwha and Puget Sound Rivers as well as California’s Mad and Trinity Rivers.

HOPES
SOUTHWEST,WA| River Steward Steve Lent, Regional Coordinator Peter Donahower and NFS member and former board member Laura Hudson served for nearly two years on stakeholder groups convened by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife to establish watersheds in SW Washington that would be managed for the recovery and protection of threatened wild steelhead.
“Asthepro-hatcheryvitriolinthepublicseemedtoincrease,peopleinsidethegroupbecamemoremoderate.Afterroughlythirtyhoursofmeetings,compromisesweremade,mindswereopened,andwhenallwassaidanddone,theinescapableneedtoprotectthesewildfishprevailed.” SteveLent,WashougalRiverSteward
The Wind, East Fork Lewis, North Fork Toutle and Green Rivers were selected as “Wild Steelhead Gene Bank” watersheds a designation formally adopted and implemented by state and federal agencies in 2014.
Our tireless advocates ensured wild steelhead benefitted from increased monitoring, conservation based angling regulations and the absence of hatchery steelhead in these watersheds. As a result of their diplomatic work, protections exceeded the minimums required by the fisheries agencies – adding additional protections for wild summer steelhead in the Washougal and East Fork Lewis Rivers.
ASHLAND,OR| Our signature River Steward Program, grew by nearly 20 River Stewards in 2013. In total, the program supported nearly 70 River Stewards working on 75 rivers in 4 states. Our program’s focus is boots-on-the-ground local advocates working watershed-by-watershed. It leverages the passion of advocates to solve the most difficult challenges faced by wild fish.
Ashland, Oregon-based Jake Crawford, formerly our Illinois River Steward, joined Native Fish Society staff as our new full-time Southern District Manager. Jake will lead the expansion of our River Steward Program throughout Southern Oregon and Northern California, empowering local citizens to become effective grassroots advocates for wild fish and their homewaters.
Peter Donahower and Conrad Gowell were both promoted into new Regional Coordinator positions, ensuring areas with many River Stewards, like the Northern Oregon Coast and the Mid-Columbia Regions, receive the support, coordination and knowledge necessary to maximize the efficacy of our volunteers. In 2013, the River Steward Program supported three Regional Coordinators, including Peter, Conrad and Paul Englemeyer on the Central Oregon Coast.
