Any guide that keeps a native is only cutting his nose off to spite his face! I don't give a sh!t about the reasons (excuses) that people give for retaining a wild steelhead. THERE IS NO GOOD REASON OR EXCUSE FOR KEEPING A NATIVE STEELHEAD! If I hear of guides keeping them I will make sure that they will be exposed on this site. If I decide to fly to Patagonia for steelhead, brown trout and rainbow should I tell my guide that I deserve to kill one since I came all that way? He would tell me to go get &%$$%##! The same applies all over the world. Why is it different here? There are fishing destinations in places where the people don’t even have a high school education yet they can see the advantages of catch and release and conservation of the resource. AGAIN, why is it different here?
