Good for them!  There were guys snagging all over the place today and not trying to be covert about it.  I just don't understand why anyone would jeopardize their fishing privileges and gear over one of those fish.   :dunno:

WDFW would have to have a perminate staff of 10 enforcement officers to maybe make a dent in the amount of snaggers in the skok.  Doesn't matter if they are there or not. The snaggers will snag. 
It's not the size of the trophy that make's it a trophy.

You may just be one person in this world. But you may be the world to just one person.

it's too bad that revenue goes to the county instead of WDFW enforcement.  they could definitely use the money.

in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun

I went fishing down there yesterday with my dad brother and my nephew who is only 10 he finally was able to get his VERY FIRST KING SALMON HOOKED probably about 15 lbs and he was getting it in. The Indian guy casted his treble hook out and snagged his fish and started reeling it in. I said man you just hooked his fish. He said "ha,ha,ha... " I said buddy you better let that fish go and he didn't want to. So I took the pole from my nephew as he was crying and started reeling and fighting my nephews legal mouth hooked fish with eggs in her mouth. And another Indian casted out there and snagged the same fish on purpose. Luckily I was using 20 lb bradied line so I had some fun doing it. But man why do they do this? What some ASS HOLES. I'm waiting to call the gamewarden tomorrow even though I should have called yesterday on the river. Oh ya they took the fish and CUT my nephews line... I said you  :yike: M....F....  :yike: I'm calling the sheriff and he said do you really wanna play "bows and arrows?" Well I have to wait and see what the gamewardens say and report this to them. But man I'm not going to pay $45.00 for my combo license get a hell of a good fish on and have them take it. Yet alone I paid $75.00 for a gate key for hunter farms access... I cant wait to see what they say... (the game warden)

I used to do great there 15- 20 years ago, too crowded now.
 The indians are jerks, I've seen the white guys start it also.
Combat fishing at its prime  :bash:

Game wardens have NO jurisdiction
