"everybody else is snagging so it must be OK"

This is exactly the reason the Gammies should go down to fisheries like this and kick some a$$. Big fines, confiscate gear, confiscate boats.

Snagging fish is never OK!!!

First its snagging chums on Minter Creek to get the tecnique perfected.

Next coho season, its snagging coho on the Green (those closed mouth things never bite anyway).

Wow that worked so well for salmon, my freezer is overflowing with fish. Hey with the low clear water, why don't we go snag ourselves a steelhead or two on the Sol Duc.

Must be OK because everyone else is doing it. frown
