It's kinda funny, or sad, that we even have to discuss a rule like this. Shouldn't it be a little easier to figure out?

Man, I can see people showing the reg pamphlet to a judge so he can see if he can figure them out without a lawyer present.

"Only unmarked hatchery fish missing their left ventral fin with an intact adipose may be retained using seletive gear and with a non-buoyant lure restriction, on the west fork of the wahddyacallit river. Limit 6, but only two adults......but you can debate with your fellow anglers if you want to stop after your adults are retained or keep fishing for jacks (and culling the adults while you do)until you get all six.

No snagging, except you guys with REALLY long leaders. Lure must be kept moving......this will allow you to set the hook 6 or 12 times per cast........so yes, plunking is illegal. All you handicappers figure out some other way to fish.......we gotta go to a meeting right now to give your fish away to the commercials.

Be prepared for emergency closures......you must check the website for them. If you are old and/or computer illiterate, too damn bad. The website will tell you which rivers we've closed because we let the commercials net the he!! out of what was supposed to be a good run.......but it wasn't so yep, it's YOu who's gonna get hosed. We regret that you purchased license/punchcard/gear for a season we closed.........but be sure to give us your money again next year and we'll be glad to try doing the same thing to you next season.

Thank you for your support of WDFW. We look forward to screwing, err serving you again in the future."

Do you think it's a coincidence that I have my copy of the regs sitting in next to the sh!tter?
