Subject: Fishing Stilly.
Hello everyone:
Went to Stilly early this morning , I could not believe what I saw on the
river.
I was fishing Fortston Hole and saw 6 bait fisherman's fishing
about 10' from each other.
In same time two of them had a fish on , both of them big steelhead, one
of them was asking other guy if he hooked wild fish , he said yes , he than
beach the fish went for the stick and start hitting on the head , broke the
stick he was all pits of of that.
Other guy killed he's steelhead with a rock , than he hooked the
fish on the hook stand near the river , while the fish was still moving and
fighting for it's life, this fish was still alive!
This whole thing made me very mad , did not want to get in between this
bunch of cruel assholes.
I went to other place to fish, a little down stream and saw two other
guys fishing , and one of them look to me like he was very young , he hooked
big fish , beached and the did not know how to get the hook out of he's mouth,
started sticking huge stick in to fish mouth, I went by and said : nice fish
it looks like wild run , in fact it was, than I said:
" to bad you have to put it back" The older guy said : no, no, you can
keep one from now on, than he started biting fish with a stick , another
asshole on the river!
All of those people look like locals from near by, the had no
appreciation for steelheads or any other fish which swimming in that beautiful
river.
They also look at you like you don't belong here, go home!
So here we have , if we are getting less and less wild fish , well today
was Thursday , and I saw in 2 hrs fishing 4 wild steelhead killed!
In order to protect this great fishery at " Forston
Hole" Fish authority should pay more attention at this
and other spots ,specially when the bait fishing season starts.
Thanks for your time .
Les
