I find myself saying stuff my Dad used to say, like when I hear rap music, I can still hear him bellow when I was playing the Stones to loud.:D
I think this is just another attempt by special interests to crowd out the little guy.
We saw it in the middle Rogue Sept.-Oct. bait ban, they dress it up to be some sort of conservation measure, when all along it's just a way to thin out the competition.
To funny about old Cody being a guide, he never mentioned that on the other Seattle forum, he said he was just a poor concerned angler worried about killing all the poor wild steelhead.
Another guy claimed that the ODFW step bio told him that the Dept. science was junk.
I gave her a call and guess what? She had no idea what he was talking about, that the science was in fact sound on the limited wild harvest.
Please do your homework, don't let these special interests get away with crowding you off your favorite river, they are only looking out for their best interests, not yours.
