what i find amazing is that if i walked into a room full of sportfisherman and said i dont want to give the commercials any more fish i would get booed out of the place No, you'd be walking into a room of people that never graduated their math classes... Example: 80,000 hatchery springers available minus selective harvest take of 30,000 = that's still enough for us sportsman to fish over... For me, that math don't work... Keith

As hard as you might try, you just can't fix stupid.

Just in case someone can do math...........
Thirteen fishers – six using beach seine nets, five fishing purse seines and two employing trap nets – caught a total of 21,000 salmon and steelhead this late summer and fall in the lower Columbia River.
The catch included 10,800 chinook, 8,100 coho and 2,100 steelhead. Both purse and beach seines proved to be effective capture methods, with purse seines being the most effective of the two gear types, according to an agency “green sheet” describing the project. Agency officials previewed the 2010 data Friday for the Washington Fish and Wildlife Commission.
Do the math folks... Assemble the entire fleet with the new method and we will be in a world of hurts...

Figure a 50% mark rate and then try multipling it out times 6-8 to figure handle in a working fishery, then add in sport handle, sealion predation and I'll bet NMFS their asses off. Not to mention the treaty rights which the Washington Commission somehow seems to have forgot all about.

I see you resurrected this from the depths after Parker closed your other biatch session down. This one won't last long either!
In before the LOCK!

Penny is about to put some people on "timeout" if they don't play nice. I have children who like to test me too. They also lose. Behave children. Else, you can grovel with Bob as to why he should un-ban the mis-behaving children tonight.......
