Doc the guy you saw with the tuna rod snagging fish was likely Butch. He's from the Jamestown S"Klallam Tribe and is harvesting fish for tribal elders. He's cool with us locals. He is one of several progressive tribal harvestors I am working with who would rather see tribal fishing rights taking advantage of sport guide/charter opportunities ala Quinalts. Regardless of opinions this is a way to eliminate nets which should be our goal regardless of race.
Anyway Butch is a good guy to get to know as he except when feeding the elderly generally catches his fish same as the rest of us with sport legal gear and methods....his knowledge alone of winter steelhead runs on the peninsula is worth the friendship.
