I know dams are not good, but can someone explain to me how they are worse than commercial and Native American nets in the rivers? Dams may kill fish, but nets can simply wipe out entire runs. There are also other factors such as ocean conditions, polution, etc. I strongly believe nets are the #1 culprit. Stop netting for 5 years and see what impact it has on the number of fish returning and spawning. I would be willling to give up fishing for 5 years if they would stop netting for 5 years. I strongly bellieve you would see the runs start to rebuild.
