Apparently fishing was too good.

"the early closure was necessary to hold encounters with wild chinook salmon within allowable limits."

I only caught and released 1 native all season.  Way below my norm for this fishery.  Sounds like BS to me.  The gill nets are going in soon and they make no distinction between wild and hatchery fish.

Talk about a bunch of crap! I wonder if the indians ever have to stop because the fishn is too good, cause that's where they are heading-right into the nets. The non natives taking it in the ars again and we are the one's spending a fortune on hunting and fishing in this state. FN irritating.
