Pick pocket.. The ONLY!!!!! legit chinook anglers on the Washougal are thoes
that do not know about the river!! The local legit anglers do not fish for the
chinooks there. Sure there may be a few guys who happen to foul hook chinooks
in the face but there is no one out there using the river as a legit fishery.. I say that
in absolute black and white terms because that is the way it is..
The big problem is that the jerks at GI Joes tell all the poor saps
who don't know any better that chinooks are being caught in the Washougal on corkies.
so the guy loads up on corkies and goes out there and gets skunked and watches
everyone else snagging. There IS NO LEGIT CHINOOK FISHERY ON THE WASHOUGAL
NONE NADA ZERO!!!! The hatchery should be closed permanently so that these scumbags
will stop polluting the river with their presence!

Anyone who does not believe me should e-mail me and we will take a tour of the river this weekend..
