i think that smalma knows alot and i allways learn something from his input.

wdfw on the other hand...... is to fish depletion as the US forest service is to clear cutts.

WDFW- is an agency that does not have common goals with anyone who wants to save our wild fish resources. it is more imprtant for them to ensure that folks in foreign countries get our resources at a great price than it is to ensure that the NW will allways have WILD salmon/steelhead returning to our tables and economies.

NOAA- in the simpilist of terms is an agency that makes up whatever "science" george wants them to. they are a total crock of ****

PS> -all of you conservatives.... where is your open market solution you guys are allway touting? in fact what is an open market solution for anynatural resource issue we are facing?
