The Northern California Fly Fishing Board

So how would you define over fished? If "most of the fish are hatchery" then would that just be when you can't pump enough fake fish into the system? If it is mostly hatchery fish doesn't that prove the fishery is hurting? Perhaps since it is already down we don't feel bad about continuing the abuse???

But you are right, when I said over fished I meant that you couldn't have a reasonable day of fishing on this river. And before you go deeper into semantics, I said fishing, not catching.....

But to your point, wasn't bruce saying something about not finding an open run in 3 different spots at pre-dawn? Sounds pretty crowded to me. What exactly would you call overcrowded?
