Agree with F4B's post. It's net days that adversely affect in-river fishing. I've always tried to time my Chehalis river fishing to avoid the net and day after net days. That's gotten really hard as the Qs ramped up their net days, but I digress.

Maybe we should advocate a recreational slice of chinook impact to the river fishery in the interest of reducing available impacts to the NT net fishery. I'd go for that if it would fly. I target silvers, whether bay or river, so anything that reduces GN competition works for me.
