Snagly,
That is my point exactly. I along with I think everyone on this board have appreciated the post that *****EDITED BY BOB******* has made. But as a spokesperson on the Cowlitz relicensing process I felt that he stepped way out of bounds posting anything. Without re-reading the entire thread I do not believe that I ever negatively posted anything that ******EDITED BY BOB******** had said. I just feel that if you are going to have a very official position on a very sensitive subject that, if left to go the way that NMFS, Tacoma and WDFW have tentavively agreed upon...in 15 years you will see the end of the Cowlitz...if not sooner. Then in the arena of fairness and for all to better understand a sensitive issue at least acknowledge some affiliation. I know that most of you that post here are Oly Pen fisherman and therefore maybe not aware of the allocation problems that NMFS has allowed on the Columbia. I spoke at great length with RT about this, if you want more info regarding that email him. If you want more detailed information regarding the Cowlitz restoration email or phone me. Remember when numbers are used regarding fish it is absolutely vital that you know who are using the numbers because they will be skewed in favor of their position.

OK, enough from me for now...had a great couple of days catching Kings!

I am still having Fun, though the political arena isn't the easiest to have fun in.
