In context, I've not fished on the Kalama for many years (live about as far south as you can be in Oregon without looking at the "Welcome to California sign on I-5).

But the signs sound like a good idea ... especially if they include a reference to the potential fine and that the property is regularly patrolled for violators.

Old (read that repitive) coment, but we 'Oregonians' still scratch our heads that game checking is not part of WSP's juristiction.

And the fellows/gals do a very good job of it. Call the Oregon Game dept about a violation and you'll be old and grey before you see 'someone' (a question of very few numbers). Call 911, and your cell phone won't be cold in your hand before a 'black and white' pulls up. These folks take this very seriously (sp?) ... and they have guns ... and lots of back up, if needed.

A 'snagging' ticket has a minimum fine of $300 .. and then it can go down hill for you from there. The Judge will shed a tear as he/she says: "See the Baylif."
