I agree. Even fly anglers can and do snag salmon, particularly where the fish are concentrated. It is often unintentional. A case in point - Beginners Hole on the Kalama River in September. It's flies only water during Sept-Oct but the fish are stacked so thick it's not hard to snag/floss one. I realize virtually all the folks fishing this hole are legit fly anglers. But there are some who aren't so inclined.
