$$$$$$$$$$$ talks, behind closed doors, the emails and phone calls must have been "a internet overload" .

No way the current practice is going to EVER bring the State fish back to historical levels.

"Washington designated steelhead trout ( Salmo gairdnerii) as the official state fish in 1969. Fishing is a major industry in Washington state (and steelhead trout is one of the most popular fish for recreational fishing)."

Can't have "catch and release fishing, plus tribal gillnetting" and expect a recovery of Wild Steelhead to reach historial numbers.

Any steelhead fishing, coastal rivers, December to April/May, is a another "Nail in the coffin" of Washington State winter steelhead.
