"Occupy Skagit" Sounds like some good casting practice. I might show up.

That's my birthday, and that's where I spent my birthday for fifteen straight years, give or take...until it closed a few years ago. I've heard rumors about the numbers the last couple of years, and those rumors, if true, would be good enough to re-open the river thru April. I plan on being there. There is also an "Occupy Skagit" facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/OccupySkagit?fref=tsFish on... Todd

So, I could legally dump the boat in and pull hookless plugs? That could be A LOT of fun seeing some super hard take downs. This sounds interesting...maybe if it works out ok, an "Occupy Skykomish" could be in order? The year I got into steelheading was the first year the C&R season on the Sky was closed, or maybe the year before? I've only been steelheading for about 4 years now I guess.I didn't know enough about steelhead at the time to realize what a bummer that was.

it would take some pressure off the OP streams too having puget sound rivers open to catch and release as I'm sure everyone can agree. I feel like spreading pressure out would be much healthier than only having a few streams open.

I fish with a guidde that gets fed up with management and described fishing wiht no hooks. It will be called biting. When the plug rod buckles, hey guys I think I had a bite! Nice we are 5 for 5 today. Looking good.

So far I'd say count me in. I'll put the boat in, do some plugging and spoon some bars.
