sometimes todd you amaze me at what you step up and spew out ... sometimes i wonder were you get off stepping up on the pulpit and preach the the gospel of todd? who gives a rats fury @ss about the native trout in the yak? spawning salmon in any system is a must for a thriving eco-system. anybody who knows jack squat about alaska knows this. the huge trout in alaska are a result of millions of spawning dying, and dead salmon.

people just love to rip indians for everything, heres' a group that is stepping up and seeding the yak system. creating a fishery when our own goverment won't and can't.

i will step up and say the indians are doing the right thing on the yakima. i grew up in yakima. and was never able to fish the yakima for salmon or steelhead. had to drive to cowlitz to fish. my 15 yearold nephew now can fish for spring chinook in the yakima. something i certainly could not have done in the 80s.

rarely do i ever get pissed on these fishing boards but good god! any group that seeds any river system in todays bogged down system is a great direction.

cut the yakamas some slack!
