I read about this on my Hunting forum, anyone here know whats going on???, I dont know about you guys but this put me up and over top if this is true!

Well there is no official letter or news about it but it has been confirmed that there will be a meeting to take public input on this very issue.. Allot of emails have been sent to the WDFW.. Here is a reply I got from my letter sent..

The commercial gillnetters want in on the Lk WA sockeye party at the expense of you and me. Here is a letter I sent, please send yours ASAP. They are making these decisions right now! If we have to share with the commercials, it will be a very short season indeed.


Also if you can take the time to attend the meeting on March 30th and comment on this it is very well worth the effort. I for one truely enjoy this fishery.. Yes we all know what a zoo it can be out there especially when the season is shortened by comercial fishing. However it is also a great way to indroduce kids into fishing for some fun filled action. Almost garunteed for them to catch a nice salmon or two..

Thanks for your thoughtful comments. I have received quite a few e-mails in the last couple of days with similar views expressed. If you care to attend our public meeting on March 30 at the SeaTac Holiday Inn (9:30 am), you can present your opinion in person to agency and other folks.
thanks,
