geez.... is the department trying to damage the fish runs on the hoh. first, they close it down early 3 out of the last 4 years. then they propose to do away with the annual limits and do away with a selective fishery area. now this. i truly don't get this, it's almost as bad as the voluntary release requirements on the queets.

i guess it's too much to ask for people to just mark the damn hatchery fish right so that we don't have rules like this to circumvent the wild release rules in effect upstream of the 101 bridge.

if anyone can please tell me what the department is trying to do to this run, please speak *g*. oh, well... i guess i'll be sending some more letters.
