Anybody get busted for snagging Salmon? (Kalama & Toutle)

[jackelope]

me too...no offense, but i agree. i used to floss salmon legally in lake ontario tribs back home...and am pretty damn good at it, but it is still snagging.
i am an avid flyfisherman,  i'm not howling, just telling it like it is.

haha, if they arent biting whats a guy supposed to do....they bite a treble hook rain or shine...

[WDFW Hates ME!!!]

Hog with an attitude like that the people that actually fish get screwed by people like that. We can no longer plunk spin n glo with eggs on the kalama. One of the most effective ways to catch chinook on the kalama.
Side hooking fish and bringing them in backwards is what causes them to go off the bite.
Learn to fish. If i see ya on the river ripping fish prepare for a confrontation with game enforcement.

Easy big guy, i was just messin around..the only time i fish is for steelhead or in summer hiking in the high lakes. Didnt mean to make ya mad...

[WDFW Hates ME!!!]

Oh i am not mad. Snagging has just hit a nerve lately. I toss plugs from the bank for coho and snaggers come down and start ripping fish and they go off the bite. kind of gets to ya...
