I couldn't agree with you more. They can't blame poor or deteriorating habitat on the Hoh....out of the national park and glacier fed. Don't blame the ocean. It's been improving for several years and river returns bear this out...except the Hoh. Why? There is only one thing preventing this river from recovering..nets, nets, nets!!! I keep hearing "drop it" it's a dead horse. Nothing we can do. They may be right,but the consequences are so devastating not only for us but for all the young kids just starting to learn our great sport. The WDFG should also have to negotiate with us on seasons and allocations. I'm beginning to think they represent the commerials and the tribes. They played a huge role in managing into this mess and now they're going to manage us out of it. Maybe John Carlson can't really make a difference, but Locke had his chance and where are now?
