For whatever it is worth I send them a mail here from Sweden. Ever since I had a chance to fish the Skagit and Sauk a few springs ago, I have longed to return. Will they be closed this spring, too?
You guys in the P.N.W have some of the finest rivers on this planet - they must be saved!!

Hi Per,
You're right - we all need to do everything we can for our brothers on either side of the Atlantic to help save our threatened stocks of Steelhead and Atlantic Salmon.
I think your email will have even more weight with the Commissioners - when they finally begin to realize that people travel great distances (and spend $$$) to Catch and Release Wild Steelhead on our rivers they might begin to get the idea that not killing them is a good idea! :tsk_tsk:
Lets keep those emails coming and all keep our fingers crossed!
hasta,
DS

In the time it takes you to read this thread, you could be sending off a letter to improve fishing and steelhead recovery. I think also that doublespey raises a good point about stuffing dollars into the local economy for the chance at catching and releasing wild steelhead. I stressed this in my letter.

Done, we midwest wild FF steelhead fisherman are 100% behind you.
I also sent a letter in December for that hearing.
they received my email yesterday!
