I think it's a great rule. Last Sept out at Sekiu we could tell right away if the fish was a Nate or Hatchery when it was within 5-10yds of the boat. All the Nates had net marks and scales missing and the hatchery fish were chrome bright, no marks.

The de-hooker is a great tool and with some practice, you can remove hooks in seconds. I made my own and always keep one handy for each side of the boat.

It's going to be a great summer, a lot of opportunities, get out there and have fun. Especially with the Pinks running, take a kid fishing, show them a good time!

C-ya on the water,
