Sad indeed. Hopefully this will make it's way to those that "matter" and put a little heat on those responsible.

Not by catch. The Tribes have Hunting' Rights. That's part of their share

All it will take is for a child to die in one of those nets. Then the chit will hit the fan. Don't believe me? Just look at those sensors on your overhead garage door.

A busload of children could die in one of those nets and nothing would happen. Friggin injuns are above the law ya know. Until someone decides to take things into their own hands.

Just curious as to how a kid would get caught in a gill net. This isn't the time of year to be swimming, .

Same way a blacktail deer or wild steelhead die in gill nets. Wrong place at the wrong time.

Steelhead actually live in the water, deer cross the rivers by swimming all the time. Sure, wrong place wrong time but what river, with an active gill net fishery, has kids swimming in it upstream of the nets?

Not sure so much we can conclude from the pic, unless someone does a necropsy.
Did the deer die/drown by swimming into the net, or did it die by some other means and just floated downstream into the net? Can't tell by the pic.

Could have been shot, died as it swam across the river. Thanks for pointing that out.

his hoof is caught in the net in the 3rd pic... probably died as a result of being attacked by another animal because it couldn't get away...
it's as clear a case against unattended gillnets you'll ever see and you guys want to perform a necropsy.?. fer christ sake...

A response from WDFW Enforcement:
"A Fish and Wildlife Police Sergeant talked with the reporting party and it was determined that the net was derelict and within the boundaries of the Chehalis Indian Reservation. The Sergeant reached out to the tribe and offered assistance in removing this net and any other nets that might be deployed. WDFW learned that tribal officers removed two nets so far."

For fuk sake, deer season is open and thousands get blown away every year. Hundreds more get run over by cars. Several thousand more probably die of natural causes. Looks like some critter had a decent meal as a result of whatever happened here, everyone needs to take a pill and chill. One deer here.
