Ya know it still makes me sick! What does a guy do??? You've got runs of wild fish that the Endangered Species Act is trying to save and then the nets go in 5 days a week, where do you make sense of this?????? Listen to me *****, what good does this do.. They can have all the hatchery fish they need, but a 2-5% death ratio on all fish they turn loose, YEAH RIGHT... I've caught hatchery silvers, chinook, etc. this year and prior years that escaped the nets with half torn out gills and net marks all down there sides, but haven't caught any native fish with the same marks.. Why, because they made it through without hitting any nets, LUCKY FISH...
I'm tired of it, so I guess I'll do what I can but to start I'll go and get a ticket on a closed stream that has hatchery fish also, and discuss it with the judge!!!!!!!!
