I believe more westside rivers should adopt some of the philosophies that the Peninsula rivers have excluding tribal habits.
It's much more enjoyable to float one of the upper sections of lets say the Skagit or Sky when there isn't a sled going by you every few minutes. You can count on that serenity every time on the coastal rivers except when they are netting, and that's only the last few miles of the system.
There is a place for sleds in the lower bigger portions of the rivers. Certain water heights should have restictions for sleds and during spawning times. I don't know how many times I've seen sleds fly over redds in the late spring and fall.
I'm not against haveing thse boats in the rivers it's that with the dwindling numbers of fish and less spawning grounds we should take the initiative to lesson the impact on them.
