Like you, many people are under the impression that CCA is going to get rid of the nets and as a consequence, your angling opportunity will improve. (That's why I joined)

Please carefully consider what the consequences of replacing gillnets with a more efficient, lower mortality, method that increases the commercial harvest ACTUALLY means to sportfishing.

Getting the commercials off the mainstem Columbia is the real solution.
