Nisqually Snagging Club

[Mike450r]

Haven't seen as many foul hooked fish in my life. A lot being kept as well.  Elbow to elbow fishing, with at least 3 hooksetting yanks on every cast.

Nothing new on any river with a ton of fish running up it..I think its funny the way some people just have to catch fish  Hell I watched Johnny Law write a dad a ticket on the Puyallup the other day for letting his son real in a couple of humpies,, while I was watching ( lets just say some doubtful Americans ) snagging, and keeping about 6 fish and not do a damn thing about it..Typical for this state..

the nisqually has gotten really bad in the past 10 years or so with the local population explosion.  i can remember fishing there as a kid and there wouldn't be more than a dozen guys on the whole river on a weekend morning.

of course losing the access to the area above the trestle didn't help, neither did the idiots at thurston county by making it illegal to park on the side of the highway in 2006 after more people started fishing there.  i have a feeling it was the jerk who lives on the corner(one of the only houses along the river still standing after the '96 flood) whining to the county.  he likes to claim the area in front of his house as his own personal snagging grounds, and will chase you off if you get too close.  i'd say if he wants it for himself the local government should have not dumped rock in front of there after the big flood...

It is too bad the state can't be efficient enough to hire a little more enforcement.

WHAT    This state would rather spend its money on B.S. junk..

What was the violation in letting his kid real a couple fish in?

[Hunterman]

I think it was because the father put the fish on his kids card, and not his..You hook 'em, and let someone eles land and keep 'em you have to put them on your catch record..You hook it,,it's your fish.. B.S. is what I say..Johnny law should of had his ticket book tossed in the river..

Wow. There's big game seasons going and a dad gets a ticket for letting his kid real in a greasy humpy and letting him mark it as his own. 

[fishcrazy]

The ticket probably had more to do with were the hook was rather than who hooked and landed them.

who cares what the ticket was for. the guy was having a day of fishin with his boy and some power hungry jerk managed to spoil it for them over a skanky old humpy. 

Let's be honest though folks , how many of us really catch fish in the mouth when they rarely bite at anything once they start up river. Do you count anything in the head as a legal catch like most everyone else or just keep one when you happen to floss it just right? Just asking , not trying to be a jerk.

I do.  Pinks are very eager biters.  Put some effort into actually getting the fish to bite and you should have no problem.  If they aren't biting you are using the wrong technique.

good point. Does it really matter how people catch fish when they are trying to catch some dinner, when you have the Indians raking in the salmon with their nets???

your logic sucks.  just because somebody else is doing something i don't like(which is legal for them), doesn't mean i can go snagging fish(which is highly illegal).  if the only thing you care about is bringing something home for dinner you shouldn't be out there anyway.
