Some of you need to lay off the guy. I think he got the point by the first two negative posts. All of us have incidently killed a fish or two. Its impossible to avoid (unless you dont catch anything). Deflate your ego's and stop lecturing.... remember, when you point the finger at someone else, you got three pointing back at you. If you feel that strongly about saving the wild steelhead, put your money where your mouth is and STOP fishing for them. It's pretty obvious the runs are really in trouble. Back up your sermons with some action, or just chill out.
