Before you get too excited: "Paddlefish were once common in the fish assemblage in central U.S. rivers, but populations have declined in many systems. Paddlefish populations have been negatively affected by overharvest, sedimentation, and river modifications. Dams in particular have had an adverse affect on paddlefish because they alter traditional paddlefish habitats and can block spawning migrations and other movements. Paddlefish populations dramatically declined from overfishing after the turn of the last century. Concern for paddlefish stocks has recently risen because the collapse of most sturgeon stocks in the world has fueled increased demand for paddlefish eggs for the lucrative caviar trade."
