Migh want to think a little more about that idea -

They could have us sportfishers go to the hatchery as well and just pick up our allotted fish as well. Just the thing to reduce incidental hooking mortaltiy of various juvenile fish, protected species etc. Save the cost of have river and bay accesses as well.

Suspect that the netters don't want to go to the hatchery for their fish for much the same reaasons you don't want to give up your various fisheries.
