MANY DFW RULES TAKE THE FUN OUT OF FISHING (You may have noticed that)

AREA 3 AND 4 BOTTOMFISH

Many of us would like to retain legal bottomfish caught while trolling for salmon. It might be easier on the resource because when people travel to a specific bottomfish destination they are more likely to take their limit. if this can't be done at least let us possess a bottomfish in deep water that we caught near shore.

Where the 20 fathom bottomfish line is enforced it should be done by depth finder and not by slanted GPS lines that few people know how to follow.

4-B BOTTOMFISH

I would like to see yellowtail added to the rockfish we can retain.

4-B SALMON

I would like to see the Sail Rock salmon closure line eliminated. If it can't be eliminated it it should be moved east to Low Point. If that is too far there is a rock pillar on the beach that would make a good landmark. WDF should please publish the GPS coordinates, which I have not seen with the Sail Rock line.

If you agree with any or all of these items please email the DFW
