"How about this idea, implement WSR, no exceptions, on a rivers where there is current healthy runs of wild steelhead, instead of waiting to implement it on depressed run. "

Yea, lets take it one step further and protect salmon and all the other wild fish and while we're at it why don't we error on the side of the fish and just quit fishing all together. We can all take up cross stitching. Heck if we ever do decide to have fish for dinner then we can just run down to the market and buy a nice fresh wild gillnet caught steelhead.
