Fishy


do you think this will be better for sportfishing ?, if so how.

WDFW officials envision a future in which the river's commercial fishers could catch considerably more fish than they do now while helping boost wild fish productivity.

isnt it safe to say that sportfishing sucks after the gillnets have been in ?, how will it be after this happens ??, and what wrong with trying to get more fish for sports ??


"The use of gear that causes little mortality would allow the harvest of more hatchery fish within the ESA impact limits and help control the number of hatchery fish that inevitably stray onto spawning grounds."

That is straight from that article, if there are less hatchery fish on the spawning beds then the hatcheries could produce more fish without impacting the ESA listed fish, thereby giving more opportunity to all user groups.
