Right now I'm thinking about all of the opportunity I've given up over the years for the benefit of the resource...No year around salmon season, no rock fish retention, reduced or eliminated lingcod season, no wild steelhead retention, no wild chinook retention, no wild coho retention, no dolly varden/bull trout fishery, no year around crab fishery, no months-long razor seasons, reduced limits on steamer clams, no take of abalone, no retention of SRC, shorter general fishing seasons, greatly increased fees, much added reporting, barbless hooks, no bait, new access permits, new public use fees, fines for not reporting, reduced crab opportunity, eliminated retention of many species, restrictions on my property rights, loss of access to rivers, posted tidelands, increased commercial exploitation, and just plain a lot more BS to contend with. And by the way I also own waterfront and paid a lot of money to enjoy all of the associated public resource benefits that can be - and have been - taken away at any time.

So for those few people who want to fight over the temporary loss of an artificial put and take trout fishery on one freaking lake that could make possible the remarkable recovery a functionally extinct run of a very unique wild fish run that persists only in a remnant gene pool and may be lost forever without immediate and heroic intervention, well, you appear selfish and being rude only amplifies that appearance.
