Otherwise you might be driving a bit.

The regs are so complicated that you can read them back to front every day for a month and still go out into the field with a violation.<BR/><BR/>But I'm actually in the mood to go fishing next weekend. Anyone know a good lake close to Sherwood?Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14946233454014389006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11266150.post-1136763768218433092006-01-08T15:42:00.000-08:002006-01-08T15:42:00.000-08:00What the fishwrap fails to discuss is exactly why ...What the fishwrap fails to discuss is exactly <B>why</B> the numbers of hunters and fisherfolk have declined. I don't hunt, but I used to buy a license and do fishing trips every year. I don't any more.<BR/><BR/>Why?<BR/><BR/>All of my favorite fishing haunts have been closed. West fork of Hood River - wonderful for trout. Closed. Salmonberry River: closed.<BR/><BR/>Every place where I used to be able to go and fish in solitude has been shut down by the government to "protect the salmon".<BR/><BR/>I'm a fly fisherman, using barbless hooks and generally employed catch-and-release. Sure, I'd occasionally cook a trout, but more often than not, I'd slack up the line and let them toss the hook.<BR/><BR/>Now, the choices are pretty much limited to lakes and stocked fish, or to other places where you pretty much need to pack an AK-47 in and sweep the rocks down if you have any hope for a quiet fishing experience.<BR/><BR/>Why bother?MAX Redlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12040240474444763721noreply@blogger.com
