This auta help their case for opposition if they take it to court.
For sure they will get a bunch of compassion about the issue of no one will come to Forks and fish anymore because of this decision.
I would be supprised if they keep this on long with the way it is going.
I would be even more supprised it it gets published in the Forum.

Cowlitz, you have no idea what you are talking about when you relate it to Forks.

No, its not.
That is what YOU are asking.
Looks like they don't want to answer YOUR question, likely because it too is flawed. It assumes that all rivers closed had a healthy run.
False...especially placed in historical perspective....
Where are all the early componenent Sol Duc, Bogachiel and Hoh fish runs then? Healthy? Tell that to that the guys that have been fishing in this town for forty years and they will laugh in your face. They died out because of their health?
Poor question and more skewed than the one posted in the Forum...

A: "A) Do you feel that if a river(s) has a healthy run of fish..."
B: "Do you feel that if a river(s) has a healthy run of fish..."
I'm no rocket surgeon....but that definitely seems to indicate you are asking the poll user to assume that the runs closed are healthy, which is laughable, at best.

Maybe they should.
We'll know for sure in about two years.
...and retread arguments like 'if a river is closed for wild steelhead retention, it should be closed for cnr' are very poorly though out....
cnr mortality = arguably anywhere from 3 to ten percent.
bonked, dead native mortality = 100%
you don't have to be a rocket surgeon to do that kind of math.
Following YOUR line of reasoning, because there is a cnr only fishery in the upper hoh it should also be open for retention.
If the releasers can fish, so can the bonkers.
If the indians can kill 'em, so can the sporties.
You see that these are some pretty shallow arguments, don't you?
To me, its tears on a table full of spilt milk.
Face it Bruce, you are going to have to put the bonking stick away for a lil while.

Bonking stick?? I choose not to target wild fish that can't sustain harvest. I don't like catching those fish over and over again. {edit} Oh yea... You won't know anymore in two years than you know now. "Following YOUR line of reasoning, because there is a cnr only fishery in the upper hoh it should also be open for retention." Wrong again. CNR/WSR is a valid management tool and should be used when needed.
