Help me spread the word about something big happening in the Colorado public land world, especially you fly fishermen. The Lower Blue River is one of the best places to float the river on planet earth. If you’ve never done it, please make it a point to get out there, I don’t care that I’m blowing up my favorite spot, I like it when people get out and enjoy the resource. The scenery is gorgeous and the bite is out of this world. It’ll be the best day of fishing in your life and it’s a public river (for now).
There’s an eccentric billionaire that owns the 25k acre Blue Valley Ranch (Paul Tudor Jones), who has been painstakingly stocking his private stretch of the the Lower Blue river with what are called ‘triploid’ trout, genetically bred to not reproduce and expend all their energy getting huge. This area’s actually nicknamed “Jurassic park” by locals because the trout there are absolute monsters. He’s also put millions of dollars worth of boulders and manmade eddies to grow big, fighting trout (honestly, respect). Right before he comes into town, his ranch managers stop artificially feeding the resident trout so they’re hungry and he has a great bite.
In recent years, he asked the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to do a land swap of nice public areas with crappy private areas. They agreed (another story for another time). Jones said that even though what we got was crappier, he’d make improvements to the put-in and take-out locations to float the river, so public access would improve.
Well, fast forward to today, he’s reneging on his part of the deal, and saying actually there’s too many people on ‘his’ river. We are negatively impacting his private fishery! He set up a cardboard cut out NGO (which he pays for) that’s campaigning to put a day permit system in place to aggressively keep you off this public river. And of course, no access improvements promised in the land swaps have been made.
This is about to blow up the conservation/public land/access world and I’m just asking that you make yourself aware of it, and when we get the chance, and I’ll let you know, make public comment on how losing access and privatizing this marvelous river for Mr. Jones’ private use is pure evil.
You might say, “I don’t live in Colorado so what does it matter.” This is a test case, there’s a lot of people watching what happens here who’d like to make their own private river just like Jones. It’s beginning on the Lower Blue but next stop might be your favorite river. If you want to do more, Trout Unlimited is gearing up to possibly protect public access by any means necessary, they’re a very reliable partner. A gift of membership to yourself or your family will put you on the front lines of the Lower Blue access fight.

@ZeusOfAimAssist You want a respawn employee who deals with anti cheat to deal with an EA account being hacked? The level of ignorance here is astounding.

@WeThePeople1_TV Agree on the first part, but we don’t know that the second part is true until they release more information.

@NoWoke_JeffAZ @RSPN_Hideouts @itsmelemxns Why would this dude ever continue to communicate when it’s not part of his job and he gets shit on when he does it? No good deed goes unpunished and him communicating early on fell right into this bucket.

@theAblaMard @RSPN_Hideouts @Respawn You should be absolutely ashamed of yourself.
No wonder some devs refuse to engage with the community if that's the type of detestable behavior they have to deal with.
Yo don't deserve games.

@mdolian @RSPN_Hideouts Being that I’ve been laid off from a job before I understand I also understand it’s not the end of the world. But if you expect me to just not acknowledge the fact this man blatantly ignores the community half the time and it’s not like he even lost his job so 🤷🏽♂️

@VyronJohnson @RSPN_Hideouts A little empathy would go a long way on a day like this. These people are humans like you and I.

@RSPN_Hideouts We get zero communication from you about cheaters and like any job if you do a poor job you get fired yes layoffs suck but what keeps your job is providing some type of value that a company has to rely on this was supposed to be the best season and just been over run by cheaters
