Fishtick ... No, not sitting this one out. My days already run close to 18 hours this time of year, and although I usually read every night, I don't post too much during Feb through mid-April or so. Days would be longer yet without the help of "Fishgal", pictured above.

I've alluded to this very study before in posts ... a friend of a friend was one of the guides involved in it ... simply backs up what many of us have been saying for a long time - done correctly, C&R has a minimal impact.

I support and applaud their efforts for the forwarding of opinions and info to the commision ... we all need to become involved and sacrifice something for the fish.

And Sniveks:
1) I thought state timberland sales went to schoools ... not just exported.
2) 300 foot buffer?? Yeah, explain the giant spruce trees less than 10 ft. from the banks of the Pysht that were cut two or three weeks back.
3) Please keep your posts clean, or your stay here will be short-lived. Thank you.
