Skeena fishery film announced

Just wanted to pass along this info from Jason Sutton, a film maker whose next project is taking a look at the Skeena fishery.
JAHTROUT PRODUCTIONS is pleased to announce our next film The Color of Fall: The story of the Skeena River salmon fishery. The film examines both the present state of the fishery and the many questions it faces. From the perspective of First Nations, commercial, outfitter, environmental, and government interests we also look to examine the socioeconomic impact of the declining fish stocks. The present situation presents a unique opportunity to address current issues of sustainability and present the Skeena River as, hopefully, an inspiration and a model of how rivers, fish, and people can co-exist.
We are in the middle of production, and will continue filming through October of this year. If you have any interest or suggestions on this issue, please contact Jason Sutton by phone or email:

hi,
If you are referring to the film in the post above...you might want to contact Jason at the linked e-mail.
We havent heard how the editing process is going but for an update he would be the man.
Also, the film is more Skeena watershed oriented than just Babine specific.
Anyways, ask Jason...he'll know.
Thanks
