I hear ya Ike! Better to have it taken away at the end of the season rather then to never have the oppurtunity again.

I really find it hard to believe that we won't have a catch and release season in the near future. I think we will see some major restrictions like no sleds on the river and no fishing from a boat(drifter or raft as transportation only).

The bottom line is that the resource needs this to survive let alone thrive. If having a shorter season is going to help, so much the better. Besides, I got crap around that house I gotta do.
