Not sure if this is in the right forum but figure it goes along conservation lines, but while out the other evening fishing a mountain(more of hill than a mountain) freestone in SEPA, I discovered what appears to be a rock dam being built for what I assume is to be a swimming hole(given the depth of the pool and spot on the creek this is in). Beings that this section of stream is on state gamelands, id assume that building such a structure wouldnt be viewed favorably.
My question is, is this something I should report to PAFBC and/or PGC? I fish this stream enough to notice the dam has increased in size since I started fishing there, and im unable to tell if it affecting the sections below where the dam is, but I cant imagine its all too great? This is an awesome little stream with what seems to be a decent wild brown population and I would hate to see this section decline beings its one of the only places you can access the stream. Kinda stuck with what I should do here.
FWIW, temps were sitting right around 62° at about 6pm, and while water was low and clear, was still able to manage a few on dries. Couple pictures of some of the nicer fish ive caught here over past trips.
