Recovery Efforts
Recovery efforts are focused on operating dams to create more of a natural flow pattern, improving fish passage up- and downstream, and restricting stocking of nonnative fish to reduce ecological interactions. Thus far, progress in recovering the pikeminnow has been limited.
Because of the program's cost, the fact that the pikeminnow is neither considered a sport nor food fish, and the conflicts with nonnative sportfish such as bass, recovery efforts are controversial.
