How about targeting SW washington rivers and leave the Olympic Peninsula out of it altogether?

Man, I get sick thinking about all the dudes who are going to migrate out here this spring.

C-n-R or not, the rivers out here are going to be like a f______freeway. It sucks! And it's also my opinion that many of your stated rivers can't handle this impending wave of fishermen....Christ, they're already crowded.

I guess my position is don't look at the peninsula as a saving grace for the entire state's fishermen. The rivers are already over-pressured and drawing more attention to them by merely mentioning them isn't going to do the fishery any good out here.

I know your idea is conservation-minded and you also care about the fish. It's just frustrating to think everyone is going to be making a beeline out here looking for an experience that will be hard to find, much less, enjoy with the huge wave of guys on the way.

How about BC? It's actually closer for you northern boys isn't it?
