I used to think this board was about fishing, now after reading this topic Its about *****ing and whinning. I remember about a year ago when a guy could get a fishing report with out hearing political stuff. Yes some people snag, some people floss, some people use eggs and plugs. But you people apparently dont fish at all because if you did you would see that the barrier Dam and Blue creek arent the only places to fish on the Cowlitz. Thats just were few of the idiots that pick up the seattle times or fishing&hunting news on friday night looking for all the answers thinks those are the hot spots. Ive met some very nice people from this board and had a lot of fun fishing with them, but would sure hate for someones son or daughter to stumble across this web sight and start reading some of the topics.
