Bob I agree a released fish at least has a chance. I just want to make sure that chance is maximized when releasing them. But I also think if it needs protecting we need to shut it down and those regulations should be obeyed in spirit.

I would love to see the guides keep accurate records of their fishing. Those records would include the section of river fished, numbers of fish hooked landed. Presently those numbers aren't kept pertaining individual guides.

On the lighter side of things....I will be meeting with a tribe very shortly to discuss the switch of fishing techniques to a more selective method.
