"I fish, therefore I am"....

Yes, I'll buy.......born in Washington State, before WWII....have fished since I was 4 or 5....caught 1st steelhead in 1965, on a fly while fishing for sea run cutthroat...that got me hooked on "big fish".

Teaching career started in Aberdeen, salmon, steelhead, sea run, off the beach ocean fishing became very much apart of my life..

Got to fish "the old days", in Grays Harbor before Bolt Decision, before all the gill netting got carried away, before steelhead were netted at all. Before the rivers were jammed with drift boats, jet boats and guides EVERYWHERE !!!!!!!

Old, old, old, so its cheap for the license.....

I am pissed that I won't be able to fish Chehalis Springers, but QIN and Chehalis tribe will be able to net on them......grrrrrrrrr
