we absolutely killed the salmon in area 10 this weekend, literally... fished area 10 and managed to hook a few dozens shakers... we moved 3 times and couldn't get out of them... rolleyes

In comparison, if area 9 were open to boats, I would've killed 4 adult hatchery coho, released 1 native coho and a shaker... fewer fish killed and more hatchery fish removed from the gene pool...

makes you wonder if anyone in the WDFW actually fishes... on the bright side, I think I have the new state record for Saltwater kokanee...
