As a avid fly angler who values our public lands, wild fisheries, and backcountry waters untouched by human activity, I strongly oppose the proposed rescission of the 2001 Roadless Rule (Docket FS-2025-0001 / RIN 0596-AD66). Inventoried Roadless Areas (IRAs) play an indispensable role in safeguarding the amazing wild steelhead and salmon watersheds of the West Coast. Specifically, the untracked forests flanking the Lower Klamath River, the Trinity River (including its critical South Fork), and the Rogue River act as a natural defense system for these legendary rivers. Fly fishing relies entirely on intact riparian ecosystems; by blocking commercial road building and industrial logging, these IRAs prevent catastrophic siltation, preserve old-growth canopies, and keep vital cold-water tributaries flowing clear. Removing these baseline protections would directly degrade the water quality and delicate insect life required for healthy salmonids, while forever altering the unique, remote walk-and-wade and drift-boat opportunities that make these canyons world-class fly fishing destinations. I urge the Forest Service to maintain the Roadless Rule in its entirety.
