With all this rain, I bet the river will be really blown out

Those of you that like your crunchy smelt tails might want to let WDFW know your thoughts, at least for the Puget Sound ones.

Done. Thanks Loki.

I selected "other".  Gee, how come an option to close the commercial fishery down and keep open the private taking of smelt was not available?

This was my suggestion. Close the commercial fishery. Keep open the private sport fishery.

Yeah, I don't understand why the commercial and the recreational have equal footing when one makes a profit from a public resource and the other brings much more $$ into the economy per pound of fish caught.   :dunno:
