Unfortunately, we already had that on rivers like the Kalama...only the fish are getting shunted down to the SAFE areas now, and fishing on the Kalama is gonna suck for springers.

Fish on...

Unfortunately for the anglers that like to harvest fish, there might not be any other option.
And compared to a C&R fishery, it would be better than nothing.
Much of the present B10 harvest is from the SAFE Areas bound fish, so sports do get a crack at them as well.
