I guess it is time for me to wiegh in on this since one of my best clients happend to be sitting next to me when some other clients called saying that they had heard rumors about for mentioned said guides killing wild steelhead.
Now if that does not confuse I will try too ! ;-)

Ok, I would consider myself a premier guide since I have been doing this for quite sometime and am pretty damn good at it.......In the same sentence I would consider myself a struggling guide because I have not been booked enough since the new year has started to really make any money. Just barley ebough to get by, Were I am going with this is that no matter what state I am in finacially or otherwise I have NO KILL POLICY ON NATIVE STEELHEAD PERIOD ! I state that when people call and ask about trips, I state that when they get in the boat and I state that when we release our first nate of the day and to this day I have never had one person complain because I make it very clear were I stand on this issue.........I also feel that I have educated quite a few people as well on this issue so I am trying to do my part !
I will leave it up to Bob to name names on the bonking guides because it is his site........but more then a few of you would believe the people who make the list, a couple of them swear to be native fish purist ! [Bleeeeep!] liars !!

Peace
