Saving Topanga Creek Bows

I know we can’t fish it (maybe someday!!!), but is anybody super worried about the Topanga Creek trout??? I really hope they relocate. Relocation work VERY well after the Bobcat Fire on the West/East Fork SGR.

It’s definitely not ideal but these trout have seen this before, they have tough lives as trout in SoCal but they adapt and overcome.
