'What invasive fish are you talking about?'
Yes, I know many of these are great to fish for and catch. I've chased many of them myself (really enjoy the American Shad!).
The delta would be better off without them!
American shad
Striped bass
Brown trout
Channel catfish
White catfish
Yellow bullhead
Brown bullhead
Black bullhead
Black crappie
White crappie
Green sunfish
Bluegill
Redear sunfish
Largemouth bass
Smallmouth bass
Treadfin shad
Carp
Goldfish
EDIT
'I heard conflicting accounts that the Delta Smelt is not indigenous'
Seriously? Do some more reading. It would not be listed if it were not native....

That whole deal was a mismanaged decision on the part of those two, SCE & DWP. Had nothing to do with the "drought".
What? Do you even read what you post? You just stated that they where planning on a 65% fill the first year then 100% the next. That never happened. Why? Wait for it:
A DROUGHT started those years.

What? Many of those species are natural hikers into brackish waters that seperate their natural waters from the salty Bay waters. Wouldn't call them intrusive. And Stripers are like Salmon, WTF? They use the oceans and the freshwater or brackish waters equally as a natural habitat.
Maybe goldfish though.

Wow, that's GREAT! Chuffer picks a random day of a random year and shows that we have almost, but not quite, reached that arbitrary amount of water!
Pay no attention to the fact that we are still 25-40% of normal... the 2006-07 snowpack had already started melting by April... and we are still more comparable to the driest year on record.
What a fuking dipsh#t.
We currently stand some 1.9" or so from equally 2007's total snowfall at Mammoth Pass.
(shhh, nobody tell the idiot he is looking at current snowpack and not total precipitation... or "total snowfall"... let's see how long it takes him to catch on... and see if he can comprehend the important difference)

The 'year' is not over yet. If you've lived in California, or done any research as a "hydrologist", you'd realize that Cali does this thing every 15 to 30 years or so. Natural cycles. We call them Indian Summers.
But I don't even see that happening this year, it's sub-par, but far from a "drought".
Again. let see what April brings...

Awesome, redefining drought again!!! Just like you redefined climate to fit your needs. It must be difficult constantly fooling yourself into thinking you know sh#t about sh#t... unless of course you are an idiot... in which case it must be quite easy.
Imagine how stupid I would look if I went to a helipad and insisted I knew how to fly one of them whirly birds better than the pilots. Yeah, you look 100x stupider.

Awesome Ricki... you included a link to your C: drive!!!!
Ah but then changed it to (god only knows what you were going for there) some LADWP site. Can you explain how that relates to the DWR site you referenced at the top of the page? (http://cdec.water.ca.gov/cdecapp/snowapp/swcchart.action);
Perhaps you were going for this: "Measurement as Inches Water Content; Precipitation totals are cumulative for water year beginning Oct 1"
Found here: https://www.ladwp.com/cs/idcplg?IdcService=GET_FILE&dDocName=LADWP003464&RevisionSelectionMethod=LatestReleased
Pure jenius!
it's sub-par, but far from a "drought".
hahahaha... blurring, you are a fuking idiot. It is a drought by definition! Unless of course we allow idiots to change the definition at whim.

Not really an accurate analogy. It would be more like telling a "hydrologist" that more water falling from the skies on a daily basis isn't less likely to incur a drought.
How can you stand by your "data-models" when it's APril 2nd? Have you no history in you models of Calif Aprils??

Shut the fuk up Donny and go look up how drought is defined outside your own vapid skull.

The snow was already melting in April 07 huh HATECHRIST???
Odd, what then was it doing in April of 83... cloning itself as it melted? It did not peak till the end of April that Max season.
hahahhaaaaaaaaa... too much.... ahhahhahahhahaaaaaa.... make it stop....

hey chuff, when the water content of the snow pack is going down, the snow is melting (or sublimating). It had already started going down by April 2007 (you see that right?)... which has exactly nothing to do with April 1983.
There is no fear in that, unless you are afraid of facing reality outside that impenetrable skull of yours.

Ah, not according to your graphs HATECHRIST. They started their descent the beginning of March of 2007.
Why?
There was NO SNOWFALL to record.
Wow, you really are THAT stupid! Thanks for the reminder.

yep... I said the 2006-07 snowpack had already started melting by April. When the water content of the snow pack is declining (when the line on the graph goes down) it means the snow was melting (or sublimating).
It must hurt being that stupid. I'm sorry for your suffering.

The ski industry needs to to get up off it's ass and price/ advertise aggresively according to when the customers could possibly travel, and target families more, not the elderly rich minority.
The old days of everybody just going for it en masse are over.
