I acknowledge what should be an obvious fact...fishing is a blood sport, and fish die when we fish for them, even the ones that we are not intending to kill.

Show the LCR spring Chinook sportfishers the facts...that they kill far more wild ESA springers every single year than the commercial guys ever do, and not only do they do so, but they spend all winter arguing in front of the Commissions to have the right to do so...and you'll hear whining about how they never kill fish, how it's all the nets' fault, and how I must love gillnets.

Hypocrisy is doing something you have said you wouldn't, not doing exactly what you said you would do, even if some dumbass can't or won't tell the difference.

Fish on...

Cat's out of the bag boys and girls... At least Todd is capable of saying it....

I couldn't agree more...

This whole crew of CCA and all is throwing boomerangs... All this pushing and shoving is about to bite everyone right in the ass..... Backing the sportsfisherman right into a corner....

Keith doh



Todd,
That is what I like about the commission. A place where both commercial and sports can be heard.
One of the reasons sports backed Ref. 45. that was passed by WA voters was for a voice in the process. It took awhile, but it is starting to work as intended and I’m glad to see it happen.

Whining goes both ways. The commercials crabbers were in Olympia complaining a couple of weeks ago that the sports take of 6% VS. 94% for commercial crabbers in the state of WA should be kept as status quo because apparently 6% is such a big number and it could be a hardship on their already part time job in the PS area.

The commercials have had their way for quite some time and sports are learning the game.

So the sports call that whine of the commercials and raise the pot with another concern.

Keith,

Yes the cat is out of the bag.

CCA has came to WA and OR and is working not only on CR problems but problems that concern other areas of both states as well.

Again, I’d been looking for a Org. that could fit the billing and I’m very glad to see CCA come to my town in WA.


I understand CCA and it the group has potential in the right places.... CR is a little to big for them.... I thought the original game plan and statement from the CCA was to rid the CR of gillnets?? Now we're headed down a road of selective commercial fishing and pretty much giving the commercials more of the sporties hatchery fish...

I'll pass on their bunk ideas for the CR.... Is it too late for them to head back to Texas?

Keith thumbs
