Thumbs down to your response andy m. Law enforcement officials are there to enforce the law and protect the rights of people whose rights otherwise might be taken from them by pompous individuals that believe, for one reason or another, it is their right to trample the rights of others. Such violations of ones rights are against the law.

This situation is one of those instances, it may not be your idea of what law enforcement is about, but it is one part of it and an important part at that. If they are not out there doing this soon those pompous individuals will grow exponentially and the rights of others will diminish exponentially.

I for one applaud Cowlitz fisherman for his handling of this situation in a mature manner and will hopefully be down that way soon to take advantage of the new bank fishing opportunity on the mighty cowlitz.
