Well I was better late than never. Had problems sleeping due to foreign material in my eye (maybe it was from hacksawing that bar rod holder last night) and slept in. Then visiting company just when I got up added to the delay but we got there just as everyone was departing.
Wasn't sure where everyone was. So I left the fishing gear in the vehicle and headed up to check that spot gman. Sounds like a bar rod would definitely have gotten muscled out. Walked in, just in time to advise a BB'er that yes he did have a spring on. What was really annoying was after showing him how to tell the difference between a white and red (lookie under gill plate) he quickly began to clean it and yes confirm it was a white. A couple observers that showed up (I don't think they even had licenses) enquired about the roe, which the angler quickly stated , "here you can have the whole thing". I was quick to point out that he killed the fish, so he was required to tag it. Ended his day of trying for a red.
So I headed down near the Gong bar and noticed what looked like the FWR group across the way. Upon finding a garbage bag left as litter, I started a cleanup of the gong bar and about a 100 yds. up river. Saw 1 other white spring taken (again the BB'er wasn't sure if it was a spring) but thankfully no sock's. As the angler was gathering his fish up he asked why I was picking up line and garbage. I stated that the group over by the Canadian flags was paying me 50 bucks a garbage bag full. j/k...but maybe I should have, as they were all leaving anyhow and I might have got him to help.
Anyhow, with bag 3/4 full and soaked down to the my 'fruit of the loom', I backtracked in time to say hi to cmn, leadbelly and catch Fulcrum before everyone headed out. The Lumina was still going as I left after cmn.
As far as the SDA's next move. More pressure to have the media tell the rest of the country what is actually happening and how FOC/government is ignoring it.
