Well i can not blame the poor performance of my local river to the nets being in the water. except for a stray fixed net that got left in. I was plunking along in the clear blue water and got a couple of nibbles on my spin glow and eggs when out of no where a 400 lb sea lion swan up the far bank and turned around and swam back down on my side. He did this 4 times, picking up a fish on the last past down just below me.
Now with Hershel swimming in my local water, who in the heck needs to worry about the nets. Do any of you know how many fish a creature this size will eat, a whole h*ll of alot more than i have caught the last couple of years.
Now i seen and heard of alot of sea lions in the old Nasty chasing salmon and what else, but not further up north and a couple miles up river.
Folks i would love to blame someone, but it does no good to yell at mother nature, she just don't listen.
