"Regardless of the rhetoric that is being spat forth on internet forums presently, in regards to how there is no indication that the Skagit system will see any increased pressure, than what was experienced prior to 2009, is total BS."

I'm sure there will be more people - simply because there IS more people. But when you talk about "increased pressure" that's going to be more experienced by the angler than the fish.

One thing is for certain, there will be scrutiny. And with today's technology mixed with angler cooperation it could be unprecedented - and I mean that in a good way.

A lot of people are putting in a lot of hard work to bring this fishing opportunity back. There will always be a few selfish, mindless, SOBs on the river. The best defense against that is to let our voices and actions be louder than theirs.
