[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 125225, member: 337"] We discussed that issue - but we have also observed reeds and cattails recede and advance quickly with the changing water levels. A couple years after "flooding" a slough looks just like any other slough. Vegetation of every type is there - just relocated. It's been a 15-20 year wet cycle... and not all areas of the state are that terribly different than the early 70s for sloughs on the landscape. With the exception of no rat houses on the majority of sloughs. Maybe they are still there but tunneling into banks rather than building houses. Seems far-fetched to me that they can't adapt to changing water levels - but maybe you are right. I'm no biologist. [/QUOTE]
