It makes me sad, frustrated, and angry when I think about not being able to fish the Skagit anymore in the spring. My oldest nephew is now 10 years old and is starting to ask me about teaching him how to fish for steelhead. None of the rivers I grew up fishing are open now and may never be open again. I have taken him fishing for dollies a couple of times but it is not the same and it is hard to keep a youngster interested when they are freezing on the river in Dec/Jan. Hopefully he is still interested when he is old enough to go to BC with me.
