That would pretty much rule out the jack season that DrifterWA was asking for. IMHO if you want to go "no bait" make it from Oct 1 to the end of the season. I see your point though, regarding protection of the kings in the river with the jacks. The jacks don't take hardware nearly as readily as they take eggs.

I would take ANY season in September over nothing though. By mid Sep there are plenty of silvers riding the tides, and a lot of them are hatchery fish. They don't bite as well as the later fish, but at least they are something to cast at.

I have the meeting on my home calendar, I should be there.
