Thanks buck, BwiBwi, Freddy 2596 and others for the kind words but remember there is lots of other working hard as well, for all of us and the fish.
Good stuff buck on the over escapement and the point you made re fish on the grounds before humans got here and screwed it up. The nutrient factor is as you mentioned very important as well. I certainly am not a scientist so what I reported re the over escapement may be incorrect.
I do know that FOC is trying to avoid the whole issue as I stated earlier they have gone into hiding and will not answer e-mails or phone calls from a number of us. In some of those on the lower part of the totem pole I canot blame as they will just be following orders from a bove to keep quiet.
The same goes for the FOC enforcement staff who got in a bit of a pickle on Saturday and it seems the RCMP have been instucted to not get involved as well.
Numerous complaints are coming into the OB report line but for the reasons mentioned they seem to be left in the file to gather dust.
I would hope some of the reason I have stated are wrong but as no will inform us what is going on I think I am correct. I will stand by that until I hear or see otherwise.
On todays press conference once again Paul Ryall was asked by a reporter about the incidents on the weekend, he said he had received nothing but would get the information for him but the reporter had not heard back about a hour before press time. Maybe he did call as he said he would but I will be surprised if he found the time to do so.
Fortunally Frank was able to tell the reporter what went on anyway so watch for the info in tomorrow's edition.
What sorry times we find ourselves in. I have located a drift net to use in a protest but we will have to put our heads together to see if it would accomplish anything. I am planning a number of fishing and hunting trips in the next few weeks so I do not really want to miss them by spending time in the jail hotel. It is too bad that those that are entrusted in looking after our fis refuse to do so to drive law abiding citizens to even consider such actions. As I type this at 10:49 pm more sockeye will be drawing their final breath in the bottom of an illegal drift boat. I feel at this time helpless to help them.
It has been another long day as the Sockeye Wars continue, by the way I must pick up the book with that title. Until tomorrow good night.
