although I would have no problem with 100% C&R I find it sad that we have to discuss it as possibly the only option to future steelhead runs. I don't have any proof to back this up but I believe much of the problem is WDFG and all the phony fish counts and run "predictions". I'm so tired of hearing all the excuses from hatchery personel, fishcheckers, game cops, and even some lawmakers. It's time to look the public in the eye and tell us the truth. I actually had one tell me "the Snohmish system can not support any more fish". What kind of crap is this? How many of you have fished it lately?
