yes JF but now we can have proof that the problem lies elsware and not with us. so if this moritorium makes no difference in returns in a few years, we can get the WDFW Commission looking in the right direction and working on the next step in the stealhead survival ladder. we can show them proof with there own numbers, counts, reports, rules, laws, predictions, and the rest of there magic, that sportsmen are not the problem. thumbs once we are taken off the list of contributing factors, they will still have presure to fix the problem but there focus will be on habitat and commercial/native harvest. if all the problems are removed through trial and error one by one, that to me is far better than nothing at all. i am all for it.
