R&G,

Thank you for your provocative response. I agree with all the examples you list. Some of those issues are fixable, some less so. I keep hoping that some one on the Commission will see the light, but continue to be disappointed.(I look at the Willamette steelhead success when since sea lions have been more controlled as an example of what could be done) Politics continue to be the with biggest hurdle, maybe surpassing bad management. Regaining habitat is good, but we can't "get there" with our limited habitat. Sport anglers continue to be stupid and dis organized (sorry to say that). If each steelheader would contribute the cost of one breakfast, about fifteen bucks, we could have a war chest of around three million dollars to hire lobbyists, contribute to campaigns, sue those who need to be sued, etc. But we won't get together. PSA disagrees with CCA, Trout Unlimited left the planet years ago, small groups contradict those who are better prepared, etc. And our Commission system is not accountable to the citizenry.
