It's fished out! You'd be extremely lucky to find a keeper. And after this year it will be zero retention. It's a amazing how fast a fishery can disappear once the masses find out and fish it out :bash: Not to mention the boat loads of of over size that are gone now thanks to the Tulalups

You might be right about the white meat but they likes them green backs. Good luck anyways on the mercury laden and exploited old dino's
