Snagging is not fishing!!

If someone just wants fish to eat they can go to the store and buy it. If they want to go fishing they should understand that fishing doesn't always mean catching.

I can't understand where people find the fun in dragging a fish in by its butt. Take a big stick throw it in the current and you'll get about the same fight.

As for the argument that the fish are just going to go to waste is a load of crap. If you're concerned about that why don't we just have the WDFW net them and hand them out. You could just drive up and grab em. Or maybe they could put them in a big holding tank, you could drive up, a person would dip net one, hook it to the end of your line and throw it in the river for you to play. That should help the poor folks who can't catch a fish on their own. frown

WDFW could even charge for this service, think what they could do with all the extra money.
