Never been there, but seen this on the green river (king county). Don't know how the rest of you would feel about this, but I wish the game department would pick a few unpopular rivers stuff it full of hatchery fish, and make snagging legal in these waters ONLY!!! Then like Rob said fine the hell out of anyone on any other river.


I don't like snagging, although at times I myself have hooked up with a few fish in the tail......hell of a fight, but they went back!!!

I must be quite honest here though, these fish are going to die. Especially those that are put out by the hatchery I see a great waste of fish by the end of the season, why do people get so upset with "FLOSSING" or the unententional hookup on the outside of the mouth, I just don't get it!!!! To me snagging is the blatent attempt to hook fish with trebles, a spark plug......well you get the idea.
