============================
Doesnt make sense in rivers that have strong healthy returnig stocks!

Per Will Roehl WDFW Commission Chair
=============================

I agree!

Feather: Remember that EVERY river used to have healthy wild steelhead stocks.

Feather, the problem is how is a stock deemed to have a healthy return? Remember, escapement (as defined by WDFW) is the number remaining after Maximum Sustained Harvest. I think I will err on the side of caution.

Piper: The problem with trebel hooks is not with vertical jiggs from boats. Nor slining buzz bombs from the beaches, well sometimes it is. The problem is with snaggers using them in places like Hoodsport. I've seen people use larege treble hooks and lead to "fish" for helpless salmon, which is why I don't fish at the hatchery. So I showed him to the warden and he got nailed for 3 fines on the way out. evil

they also outlawed spearfishing for rockfish, some spear divers are worse than the "native americans' when it comes to that.

I totally aggree with you FJ15...

Enforcement and/or localized bans are the key! not a flat-out ban in saltwater... thats just punishing the law abiding fishers.

And also, you will no longer be able to fully remove wild steelhead from the water

All in all, today will go down in history as the day the wild fish won!! smile

I am going to go throw down a couple Mack & Jacks at a local drinking establishment to celebrate...and maybe shed a tear or two.

Life is good!

Great news! We need to say a special thank you to commissioner Pete Van Guytenbek. He is a friend of the sportsmen. I know Pete. He loves to fish and he cares about the resource. Way to go Pete!
