Lifter,

You are correct. As I have said before, there have been a lot of wild encounters this year (far more than normal), not too many sublegal encounters, and yet we were closed for sublegal encounters. If we were closed due to wild encounters it would be much more believable, but clearly there is something fishy going on.

Here we are now with the preponderance of chinook to arrive in the next couple of weeks, and recreational fishermen are not allowed to fish for them. This better not be the new norm. I would much rather have recs fish in August than in June, but the tribes certainly wouldn’t like that. So here we are.
