Yo Buc you trying to make my catch look small or what, you must not have caught a five pounder or better and only took a picture yourself holding it by the mouth only to have someone say it looks small ok cool I can deal with your comment so what are you catching that I can comment on, where you live, you probably have better bass fishing over there, not so much here, so any four five or six pounder caught over here is great only I can catch multibles and I don't see any on your end. Besides if you are worried about size and limits then you only are caring about food for the table eh ? I catch and release normally at this place but the balance is changing, not as many little ones so some big ones are going to end up on the plate this year, just cause you can't see the rest of the fish doesn't mean they were small. I will post a fuzzy pic of one laid out so you can see whatever your judging my size of fish on so take care man and happy fishing my friend

bs 61, might wanna check yourself this post is about walleye?

[Basser61@comcast.net]

Like I care about your fishery up there, we have our own issues with the Indians here also, nothing new around here, they get the nets out take their suppossed quota and then some I'm sure and we cannot fish until whenever the fish and game decide. Sorry to here you'll have issues also, damn state keeps on tack on higher fee for licensens and the Discovery Pass thing man just a nickel and diming us. So no hard feelings keep on keeping on Tight Lines ole boy, take care and God Bless.

couth? like you have none!

Funny how they go after pike minnows (squawfish) and they are a native fish too, for eating salmon......never mind the fact that 90 percent of all western fisheries are not native species.....then pike....and now walleye.....

looks like the federal government is paying out to the tribes again, maybe they should pay them to manage and not to exploit fisheries....just a thought.

snafu? when in doubt re-route the trout make em pay, transplant a spinyray? SPINYRAYS RULE!

[fishinChristian]

I already boycott the tribes, ever since gambling became their big push. I'm told I'm part Indian/Native American whatever, but I no longer mention it in public. I don't hate, but I'm not proud of what they are doing either.

[buc]

Walleye are being transplanted by natives, people who live here are natives! hehe

[fishinChristian]

Yeah, I consider people born here native. Thought it was the definition...

[buc]

I agree with you I am also native and I will make the spiny ray flourish inn this area with help from my native friends! walleyes rule!

[fishinChristian]

I know I've been turning even more of the bigger walleye back since I learned of the planned genocide, especially away from the Sanpoil, where they may survive and multiply.

[Dan 2Rivers]

As a Spokane Tribal member we do not want to kill walleye on the Spokane Arm, Our Tribe wants to open the Spokane Arm for non members to fish year around and finally the State has agreed and opened walleye fishing year around. If the Tribe wanted to Kill all the walleye don't you think they wood let the Tribal members gill net and it has been approached by Tribal members to do so, and they have not and will not let that happen so to say the Tribe want's to Kill walleye is far from the truth.

[fishinChristian]

So you are saying the 2 articles at the beginning are in error? Not that it would be the 1rst time a newspaper messed up, but...?

[buc]

They are gill netting they are killing walleye they are letting people catch 16 a day they are letting people catch 16 a day during spawn killing millions of eggs. You just got all the non native people to help you cause they don't know any better. Nice Try!

[fishinChristian]

I did see one net across the San Poil a couple of years ago, so unless you have some kind of proof, I'm unconvinced. Haven't been up since. That being said, I know not every Tribe member would be on board with the policy. D2R, check with the council please.

[buc]

Well try looking harder and maybe spend more time on the water and less on your computer! Get out and fish!
Next the Indians will say pot plants are native and we must give them all the profits from it!
I use common sense! @#%&= LMFN

[fishinChristian]

Wouldn't mind them taking those profits. Think they'd trade for the fish, or some of them? If I fish any more I might as well sell my house!! Common sense: Rare needed commodity! Went to engineering school with an old school Native/Indian (which he called himself) and he was just as disgusted with most of his "new generation" as "we" are with much of ours. Many seem to take what is good, drop it, then take the worst a society has to offer. According to history, many nations have fallen that way. Well, time to go fishing!!

[buc]

Political power and lack of common sense kills most countries. Where next just look at our idiot leader of the so called free world. I am going fishing as well!
