A week or so ago someone put up a report about the gill nets. I went back and looked for it but no luck. They said they wre going in some days in Jan. @ Feb. I looked on the odfw site and did not find that report. I wonder where they got their info.

I've always found this one to be an excellent source of commercial fishery information. There is a link towards the bottom about smelt and sturgeon netting. Not sure about Springer netting though...
