jeff'e'd Spawner Registered: 07/10/00 Posts: 948 Loc: Snohomish, WA USA	Can anyone explain why these areas are closed to salmon fishing, when inner Eilliot Bay is open?

GutZ The Original Boat Ho Registered: 02/08/00 Posts: 2917 Loc: Bellevue	Must be to protect those Issaquah Creek Hatchery Fish :rolleyes: Doesn't seem to make sense. Hopefully next year will be selective in 10. More likely to protect Bear Creek or other Trib Nates. At least the Shilshole closure. _________________________ It's good to have friends It's better to have friends with boats *GutZ*

I have however though about trolling along the line for them. _________________________ They say that the man that gets a Ph.D. is the smart one.
