Herm: I agree with most of what you have said, except this one; "However, I believe that a more visible presence of gamies at the launches and on the rivers, would go a long way toward keeping the honest, honest!"
Well herm, that sounds pretty good, but what has it ever done for all the illegal gill net fish that are either "taken" or killed every year? How many times have we had the netters observed? and it still goes on and on!
4Salt, your colors are flying again!
I take it, that old "Rush" must get to you a little bit sometimes!
Well, he gets to me sometimes too, so don't gloom too much about that one
If I am Rush, then you must be "Phil Donahue" (sp) . . . right?
So tell me, did I put a "little bit to much pepper" there, or was it just right?
Maybe you should do just a little bit more home work, and then you may realize that you really don't know $hit about the history of the Barrier Dam, the Cowlitz, or snagging on the Cowlitz; or what the WDFW had originally proposed to do on the Cowlitz in the past!
Obviously, as usual, you have gone to your same old famous "attack" mode without doing all of your homework first again.
I just can't wait to hear your reply about what you "think" you know about WDFW, and "snagging" at the Barrier Dam.
One thing that you "don't hear me ranting about" on this board; are issues or places that I do not know anything about!
When you're done ranting, you can tell us just how salty it really is!
Ps, Your closing line: "can hear me now.....Good" should have an add on staying; " I need to look up, something is coming down on top of me !" (jk)
