up and down.
I have been doing very well, as in multiple harvest cards well. but I hear of and watch a ton of skunks.
last week the gill nets were fishing on thursday, yes thursday one of our few days to fish! Pathetic that kulongoski and englund are overlapping our (sports and commercial) dates even though they are keeping us off the river half the week.
We must get these guys out of office and off the commission!

Well, in the last 12 days I have hooked 9, and boated 6. Smallish early runners, but delicious. The fish are in the Columbia. Red Lables, and a nice roll will hook you a fish for sure.
Agreed Osmosis, time for change.

Don't feel bad
Don't feel bad
I haven't even gotten out yet, and probably will completely miss the entire columbia season because of my work schedule. I'm just hoping we get a season above the falls so I can get a crack at springer flesh.

I'm so for this idea Kodiak!!
I was just talking about doing it tonight.
Seriously SOMETHING has to be done about the raping and ravaging of our rivers by the gill netters... and SEA LIONS.

We can't
We can't
We can't go all hillbilly on the gillneters as much as we would like too. I know some guides in alaska open bales of straw up river of the nets and they say they end up in japan some place, and the netters get all P.O. and say nice things like they do on that other forum.

Hate to say it, but I get eggos from the Columbia Gillnetters, and already this Springer season...Two boats have hauled up bails of hay in destroyed nets. They say there is a ghost 21 foot tiller sled, below Bonneville, who has been dumpin bails in at night, just at sunset. Can't say I disagree with whoever dumps 'em, but I definitely would not like to get caught!

Most definitely. Most pirate operations are happening out of the mouth of te Willy, and farther down, but there are always the guys who dump, bails, with a dozen steel straps holding it together. You can visualize what happens when the bail comes apart in the nets, after rolling down river for miles. a lot of new bills fizzled, and got shelved, along with a bunch of other good stuff too. Sucks, but I hope this particular one actually went through.
