The war has been started?????? I thought this was about the good of the fish? Not the fisherman. I've been against WSR from the get go for several reasons

1. Where has WSR worked on a major system that is netted by Native Americans?

2. It had no input from the tribes (without their partnership nothing will revive wild stocks)

3. The way it was pushed through without input from those that would be impacted the most i.e. city of Forks business owners.

4. The input and opinion of every WFDW employee that I have spoken with was discounted by the commission.

5. Provided fishing opportunity for a few that feels C&R mortality is ok where there should be no sport fisherman mortality or threat of mortality in a river with threatened wild stocks. (close the rivers for feb, march, april, may.

I pose little threat to wild fish anymore because I don't target them. I fill my freezer with hatchery brats and that works for me. There are plenty of other opportunities out there. So let's get back on the same page and work to curve the decline of wild stocks not divide our numbers.
