To be clear, I don't think snagging is okay, nor should it be tolerated. My point is that if people snagging is what is keeping the rest of us off the water, and WDFW is aware of where it's happening, there is no excuse. Send somebody to a known hotspot and have them ticket every person who is observed snagging. The behavior is sure to change if appropriately penalized....

I mean, it's kind of like the thing with the timber companies closing all the logging roads to public access. I understand their point of view, but man, does the outcomeof the few who misbehave misplace the burden on the many! At least WDFW has SOME authority to punish offenders....
