Why is it so hard for some people to realize that the reason we went from rivers with fish so thick you could not walk acrossed them without stepping on them, to rivers that are basically barren. Is not because of hooking mortality, not just because of sportsfishermen! Its a combonation and until all numbers are correctly entered the lock will not open! Its not going to help if just we stop fishing! not one bit! sure another fishy will live another day ooooooooh, what happens to that fish later. do the indians get it or the commercials or the japanese or the russians or the mackeral.
That's right Micro, we (sportfishermen, and for the majority of them that I've seen, I use that term VERY loosely) didn't cause the problem, so (to borrow vernacular from our buddy superfly) [Bleeeeep!] it! I'm gonna keep doin' what I been doin'! Long as them indians and commercials and loggers and seals... blah blah blah keep killin' the runs I'm gonna git mine no matter what! rolleyes rolleyes

Have you ever heard the expression: "If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem..." beathead beathead

p.s. Last time I checked, this wasn't Steelheader.net wink
