There was a group of us who tried to get sleds banned above the west fork a few years ago. We had over 500 signatures. Never turned them in.
You have no idea what lengths Ron Warren and Kurt Hughes will go to. Ron was worried that if part of the river was just for drift boats and bankies no one would fish it. Then what would happen to all the hatchery fish? They would just swim up river. We had a meeting with one of the comm and Kurt just lied to the point of insanity. It became obvious they had stock in Woolridge.
I gave up. So did the rest. So then the sleds were mad we tried and the drift boaters were mad we gave up.
I figure no one gives a F about the river, why should I? Lets just use it up like a bottle of vodka in Leaving Las Vegas.

What we do need are more folks to say whats right and whats wrong on the river. Get in their faces. Throw insults. Throw rocks. If no rocks throw pencil lead. The problem seems to be that no one wants to "annoy" the bad guys. When someone side drifts through the slot I am fishing I start with "Sorry I didn't realize you were fishing here, I didn't see you the last 2 hours". Then cast across their lines.
Bring old school back, it works.
