I sent my proposal document in today. They have to be received by WDFW by 7/18. I asked for statewide Wild Steelhead Release. Smalma, you are right, WSR is not a magic bullet, however it is part of the ammo. We clearly know that a bonked fish is dead and can not contribute to the gene pool. Out of 100 Steelhead released we have a good possibility of between 96 and 90 surviviing to spawn. It is admittedly a compromise and one that allows us to keep fishing. It is a compromise that I support. My $.02
