What's "ordinary care" though Aunty? How exactly do you define it? Do you ever wonder why barbless hooks are required in salt water? Or during C&R seasons for steelhead? Here we are demanding that commercials absolutely fish selectively, yet we're not doing all we can to lessen our impact in this mixed-stock fishery.

I would like nothing better than to see ALL commercial netting (Tribes included) stopped in the Columbia. (and everywhere else for that matter) All I'm saying is that we (sportfishers) definitely would occupy the moral high ground and perhaps one day even the legal, if we did ALL we could to protect ESA listed species of fish.
