I emailed Kurt C.(area 4 biologist) and Jeff K.(director of WDFW) directly. They said the official word would be posted on the WDFW site. If ANY fish were to be taken it would be a short opener Sept. 29th through Oct. 4th. Most likely the opener would be posted by Tuesday.

I see there are alot of people bonking fish, maybe some enforcement is necessary. I'll have to talk to Bill Hebner( area 4 enforcemnet) when I see him tomorrow morn on 8-2.

For those people out there bonking away, the solid early show of silvers doesnt necessarily guarentee high enough returns to open it up. Kent at Ted's did not say it was open. And besides, if you bonk now, your going to screw it up for the rest of us later. They might not open it up because of the poaching.

=)Your right STEELYBOB, your in conformance with the targeting issue, however if your casting #4 super vibrax at holding silvers, that might be a different story!.

If you see a coast guard helicopter flying over the sky tomorrow, that will be Bill H. I highly suggest you stay away from the mouth area of the wallace below the train trestle bridge with spinners.
