Freespool,

Can you tell me why retention is a good thing without the science to support anything, let alone a kill fishery? One thing to remember is ODFW reminded us a few years ago about the record springer returns on the Columbia. They for got to mention it was Post Dams, oops for the historical estimates were 16-17million fish not close to the new "record" 1 million. Why risk something that can never be replaced?

BTW, I have no issue wacking the right fish.
