The only thing there lawsuit efforts have ever achieved is less opportunity to fish for steelhead anywhere. For what? To never see a Steelhead beached on the shore? Or in a net to be released ever again? You can't enjoy Steelhead visually without hooking and landing one. Baffles my mind a little, that I like to swing flys for them. Don't those WFC guys like to do the same? Bastards! Dirty bastards for those that have demonized Steelhead fishing in this state. I say open everything everywhere year round for catch and release, regardless of hatchery smolt planting! That's done! What does it really matter? Actually I'm fed up. I'm brave talking after a couple of bourbon's tonight. This season I'm going to fish for steelhead where I want, when I want, regardless of regulations. I will pay the fines if caught, and go to jail if that what it comes to. You past dept. guys will struggle with this. In reality, my days are numbered anyway. If in jail for sportfishing catch and release, maybe Trump will pardon me for the Steelhead bshit thats' going on here in this state.
