I'm not trying to promote C&K. I'm just saying that it's completely bogus to even imply sport fishing has contributed to the decline of the runs. I also stand by my belief that it's wrong to harass people who do decide to keep a nate on a river where it's legal to do so because that run isn't close to being endangered. I've repeatedly said I've never kept a native but have no qualms with those who do. It's their right. I just want to see blame going in the right direction. It's not sportsmen, it's not habitat, it's gillnets whether they be tribal (in rivers) or commercial (in salt water). You might as well say sport fishing is responsible of for the near total decline of the bottom fish population in Puget Sound. Are you saying that because a ling cod is endangered in some areas, and I catch one in an area where they're not endangered, I should let it go? That just doesn't make sense.
