Vince, increased enforcement has been noticed, if you had something to do with it, thank you. Seems like most of the foul hooked fish are being released, pretty good compliance. Saw two guys get talked to by the Federal guy, seems they each had a fish on a string, and continued to fish. Guys that fish hunters lower field seem to be trying to keep area clean, roll of trash bags on the bank, and most always one tied to a tree in plain sight. Will check my game plan for the 19th, am old and slo, but will try to help if timing works out. Post where to meet and time if you can. One thing these noisy guys should know, is that the skok kings eat pretty good for fall kings, compare favorably with the Klicitat fish. Beautiful deep red meat, and at this particulare time, very bright fish. As for all the fish with gaff hooks sticking out of them at the hatchery, know this, the native fishers use legally, some very large hooks, and when no one is looking trebles. The federal warden has slowed down the treble hook dudes, and the snaggers really have to work for there fish now. Sure would like to see a couple hundred guys and gals show up with eggs some day, would be fun. tite lines, and GO SKOK ha ha
