Salmontackler, First I would like to apologize for berating you. You do have the right to voice your opionion. As far as my doanated time. Past president NW Steelhead and Salmon , Yakima Chapter which included regional meetings on the polotics of the salmon and steelhead. Cleaning raceways and raising steelhead. Doing elevation surveys on the Little Naches to help the salmon to get up stream during low water. Participating in fund raisers. Including the salmon dinner. Clipping fins at the Naches Hatchery. This was all donated time. I was born in Yakima as well as my father. I'm 48
and have fished for salmon before it was closed. I thought I would never fish again for salmon on the Yakima but A dream I've had has came through. I think that we can co-exist on this fisherie. The only trouble I have is that some of those Giant trout might eat some of the salmon reds. Natural predation must be allowed. I also wish that they would extend the boundery to Prosser.Enough said good luck fishing. Jim Marquis
