Rich G,
Not taking sides on this but I'd like to directly quote you, " The wild steelhead runs anywhere are in no condition for any type of harvest." And, "And yes every Nate that is bonked does make an impact.

Can we take that to mean that you (and the others that agree with you) are going to stop fishing completely? After all, even catch and release has a certain degree of mortality which translates into dead nates. How deep are your convictions here? Or are you just attacking everyone's use of the resource except yours?

Just curious.
