Not all rivers have non-buoyant lure restrictions at this time, are you saying that all rivers are going to be placed under the restriction. I know that the Kalama and the Elochoman were real snagfests and this rule was done in part to help those rivers. That being said, I saw a lot more compliance with the law on the Skok, and the Cowlitz this year. Still a few that dont get it though. Friend of mine that will not knowingly break any fishing rules was on the Cowlitz recently when the warden came down for a visit, caught some guys that had not punched their fish, and then came up to my friend and said someone had seen him keeping a snagged fish. He couldnt believe what he was hearing, and told the warden to ticket him and prepare for a day in court. To bad a warden from Longview feels he has to do that to write a ticket. My buddie is going to visit fish and game enforcement in Olympia and complain a bit.
