According to their web site they do not start netting here until Oct. 10th. The river opens Sept 16th. Chinook are pretty much gone in the lower river by then or at least they have been for the last 3 years according to what I see come out of the gill nets. If I am seeing the wrong schedule please let me know when they are netting, http://209.206.175.157/Fishing%20Regs/chehalis%20commercial.pdf
that's their published schedule. 11 days in the river instead of 25+ isn't going to help limit Chinook catches? Starting 2 weeks later isn't going to do the same? Show me a different netting schedule and I will retract/alter my comment. Have you compared their netting schedule from last year?

As for the punishment for sitting on and killing Chinook for fun, I think what I posted is a good place to start. I know people who think they need to be have their boats taken out from under them while fishing or simply be sunk on the spot.

As for what am I smoking, nothing, I quit smoking completely 2 weeks ago. If you want to blame it on that then go ahead, I don't.
