Are we so depressed that all we can do is think of potential negatives to a really good announcement?

[HUNTINCOUPLE]

Bring on the the fish! Let's all say a fish god prayer.....

Oh mighty fish god please bring the fish.
Oh mighty fish god bring on the salmons.
Oh mighty fish god let the rains of your heavens swell our rivers.
Oh mighty fish god let them come by the millions.
Oh mighty fish god let at least one bite my hook....

May the fish god be with you!!!!!

Would love to try catching some if anyone's willing to take me. Not new to fishing just to salmon. Would love to put some in my freezer. Pitching in for gas is a given! Located in tri cities.

Do you have a boat?

Every year they say huge run.  Then everyone gets all exited and runs out and buys a license then the river gets shutdown .  Wdfw makes a crap load of money on licenses then no fish show up.  Something evey year.

You must not have paid attention last year and the year before.  Both years had crazy good king fishing at B10.  Last year 1.2 million kings showed up. 

Everyone stay home and complain about it being closed.  I'm going to go hook 20 kings a day.

Preach it brother!

They're just trying to hype ya up to sell some licenses. They'll downgrade the run, keep the limit low and Close the season because the commercial guys went over their quota and the impact of released wild fish

Do you suppose that all these huge runs of fish throughout Washington over the last two seasons, or the huge smelt run last year have any correlation to the Japanese fishing fleet being wiped out in the tsunami?

Very doubtful.  I think it has more to do with court ordered spill in the spring and the pacific decadal oscillation.

I don't either and go with my dad or friends.  I'd take you if I did.  If you do find someone to go with, feel free to hit me up for info!

No I don't.

Thanks for the info WSU! I'm ready for another banner year! I didn't hit the Columbia last year, but without a boat the Columbia is a hard one to fish.

More fish=More regs. Can't wait to see what hair brained  rule it will be this year!
