Geeze, I think I'm becoming that guy I used to hate at club meetings that was always telling us how this state was screwing bass fishing! But...
The big, huge list of proposals for saving the resident Orcas include wiping out all bass in the Columbia and all it's tributaries. Yep, we've heard this before, and they've already succeeded in removing limits. Now they want to outright kill them.
Why?
Well to protect the salmon of course! You see, salmon is Orca food. So...save the salmon, save the Orca, so goes the thinking.
You can let your voice be heard, by going to
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/srkwtfdraftreport and providing your input. It includes a section specifically about bass and walleye, and if you think they should be exterminated...or not.
I promise you, others are filling out this survey and demanding the total extermination of all bass, walleye, and catfish. So you need to let your voice be heard!
Ok, I'm done now. Hopefully I won't become that ol man.
