My daughter and I were kayaking on the Pachaug River in Voluntown and found it completely dammed up. They did a great job. The water up stream of the dam was 8-10" higher than below the dam. The water upstream has overflowed the rivers banks and is making a pond.


Out of curiosity what is the state (DEEP) policy on beaver dams. Knowing I cant go all Duck Dynasty on them.....Does the state take them down? This definitely affects the fish swimming up and downstream. I suppose it could become a problem in the spring when more water is going over the beach pond dam. Any info would be appriciated.
