Guys read the comments! The fly fisherperson sure gets hammered by the ignorant SOBs. Saying fly peeps don't care,they want the rivers to themselfs and and destroy everything whereever we go. BS. Somebody go and reply to such nonsence. My old computer does'nt comply with some of the formats required in todays electronics. Somebody please! Tony
I have an issue with eliminating the summer steelhead fishery on the Wilson, since it's a hugely popular summer destination. Otherwise, the rest of it doesn't seem too harsh.
Well done ESF. Outlining it like that, makes is clearer. Too bad the journalist who wrote the article--didn't line it out in that format. I'm glad to see that, I was mistaken...only a REDUCTION on the Siletz summers (not elimination).
No problem. It was posted on another board, and definitely makes the picture a lot clearer.
If you figure that hatchery fish roughly return at 1% on an average year, you're looking at going from 800 summer runs returning to 500 on the Siletz, while gaining 1000 springers in Yaquina Bay and 200 extra winter steelhead on the Alsea.
