Talked to a couple people today, including the Skokomish Police Chief and the Game Dept is setting up multiple cameras to catch poachers and anything illegal.
Sure hope so. As one of the very few legal fishermen on the river it would be nice to see fines being issued this year. Wdfw really lacks handing out tickets on the skok

I'm glad I started fishing it back in the early 90's so I can agree :chuckle:

Then you would have people like bowhunter45 plunking their eggs on the bottom with a float and snagging that way.:chuckle:

I catch thousands of fish a year and as long as they are bitting I am ripping lips ....On the bottom -in the middle or on top I like it all ways :yike: That was not to bad now was it :dunno:

Before you watch, you should know that the natives are on the other side of the river and fisherman on either side kept catching each other... especially when someone had a fish on. It was always a no contest because the natives were using such big line.

I just called wdfw about this and the answer was NO
No what? No cameras?
I wouldn't believe that. I was recently told by a WDFW employee that they have cams on certain gates in the Capitol Peak and Satsop units to catch quads going around gates so I can easily believe they would put cams on the Skoke.

No the wdfw does not have cameras up.
I did get a follow up email saying that the tribe does in fact have cameras in place to monitor trespassing. And that is the only reason. They are not for wdfw enforcement reasons.
The tribe will be actually enforcing their no trespassing law, which was put in place quite a few years ago and never really enforced.
And yes. Green diamond does 100% have cameras watching gates. Many people are now finding that out via mail. With life time banning from the properties.

:) "back in the 90's" ??? children, you know nothing. Skok is a poacher hole, the state helps.

Seriously :yeah: I laugh every time I hear that.
