Thanks for the good words. I'm not ready for office. I'm not PC enough. I am not a member of a fish related group. If I choose to become a member of a group it would be the Stiily/Snohomish Fisheries Enhancement Task Force. I do a lot of work with them. They are interested in enhancing habitat. And that is where my focus is. Why? I feel that if the habitat is repaired the fish will come(so to speak). As the fish return our opportunities will also return. Don't get me wrong. I love to fish(I'm a crappy steelheader but keep trying every year . Sometimes a little effort reaps large rewards.
In case anyone is interested the Task Force will be holding a planting for Earth Day at the park by the Lewis St. bridge in Monroe I think on April 21st. They can be contacted at: dave@stillsnofish.org or ann@stillysnofish.org Dave Ward is the habitat restoration manager and Ann Boyce is the volunteer coordinator for the Task Force. If you write tell them Oscar sent you.

For you c&r's on the OP I hope this rain has brought the rivers up some for you.

Tight lines.
