What makes anyone think that ODFW will listen any more than WDFW? Or that any legislator (with the exception of Ike) gives a damn about what sport fishermen think? We are going to pay whatever it costs to fish anyway, and we are going to go fishing whether there are good numbers of high quality springers for us to catch or not. Who here is not going to spend every spare minute, and nickel, fishing for something, whether we have springers, sockeye, or not? So our arguement rings kind of hollow in the end, unless we just vote all the bass-terds out. That's what I intend to do - my next letter is an ultimatum to our beloved polys - introduce and/or support legislation to get the commercial fishery off of any run that can be fully expolited at considerably more benefit to the state by the sport fishery, or I and everybody I talk to votes you out mad

The fishing was GREAT! The catching could have used some improvement however........
