I was going to mention this same thing. This is an old video. Many of us bonked nates in the earler years and some us weren't as fortunate to catch the conservation bug until after the damage was done. I killed some wild fish. Would I take it back? Hell ya I would! Unfortunately, this guy seems to have a target on his head as of late. The hoh river incident last year seemed to start this witch hunt. Fact is, Glenn had some newbie with the film crew in a different boat that broke the show's catch and release policy. When Glenn found out he was upset and apologized to everyone. Here we go again. rolleyes



Didn't look close enough to see how old the video was. If he is practicing CnR now that is all you can ask for.

Just thought it might have been more recent as you could still keep at least one native on the Umpqua until fairly recently.

Apologies for starting a needless witch hunt.
