And how it reads from your other guys...

step one. stop killing wild steelhead.
step two: talk about how wild fish are now saved, and bask in the glory of our victory..
step three: wonder( five years from now) why the numbers are still declining and other fishing opportunities have been taken away.......

I haven't killed a wild steelhead since the early 80's. I rarely kill a brat. So dont throw me into the CNK group. I always thought they were just to pretty to kill.

We have set a precident that we will regret. We have taken away our own choice under the guise that it will make a difference in the long run... how will we argue it when they make blanket rules later that demolish other fishing opportunities?

My take is that many feel that WSR IS the answer, and they will ignore the real issues....

dont forget....there are nets out there RIGHT NOW killing your Wild Steelhead before they get the chance to spawn.
