Holy fu.ck.

So these fuckin' donkeys are going to limit leader length without defining what a leader is first? Christ. I just checked the definitions in the regs - there is no definition of leader.

Just like greg said. You can drive a truck through the loopholes. Don't use a leader. Tie your hook directly to the mainline.

Now what? Ticket you for the leader, by THEIR definition, that you aren't using?

I can't even believe you guys are behind bullsh!t like this. Shame and tickets are the way to limit snagging. Any gamie that can't write enough snagging tickets in the known sangfests to pay his own salary should gtfo. Go to those spots, and crack the fu.ck down. Bust the assholes snagging and then come back tomorrow and do it again. And if dudes are being stealthy with their 12 foot leaders and not ripping every cast to meet the snagging definition, then loudly clown their asses in front of the crowd and encourage others to join in the mockery of of dipsh!ts using that kind of gear.

Gamies aren't stupid. They know snaggers. They don't need a bullsh!t rule like this if they want to put a crimp in the known snagfests. Their problem is lack of manpower streamside. 800 middle-manager dipsh!ts and a handful of wardens for the whole west side. No wonder things have become what they are.

Fu.ck you and your rules, WDFW. Fire some management, hire some boots, and get those boots in the field to enforce the laws already on the books.
