Just wondering what the legal status of catch and release is. I often read Bob's reports (as in the last one) that his clients land as many as 9 steelhead or salmon. I was under the impression that an angler may catch and release or retain until his daily limit has been obtained. I often times read about others on this page stating they hit many over there limit. It seems that it's awfully hard on the fishery to C&R that many fish knowing that the mortality is probably 10 to 30 percent depending who you talk to. I've done this many times myself especially late in the season when there are many dark fish or spawner in the system.
