Shouldn't sport fishers be allowed to fish for steelhead? Since the 6.5 inch mesh is clearly targeting the larger salmon and sturgeon?
Edi: I believe Region Five uses four inch mesh to determine the presence of steelhead and salmon in the Spring time, lower Columbia River? Cold water conditions should be similar.
