Springers- anyone else notice??

[Bendman]

Did anyone else notice all the net marks in the springers this year? I would say at least 75% of my fish all had net marks. I spend my spring on the Deschutes and I know OSP found a few gill nets strung across the river but 75% is a lot. How was it on main stream Columbia??

Never got a 1 with net scars but several with a good bit of SEAL disease :depressed:
Fished the columbia, cowlits, kalama, and lewis areas.

I got a few with net marks, but the majority of damaged fish were certainly caused by seal attacks.

I caught a springer with net marks this year.

I caught 2 with net marks, both on the Willamette.

Dipnet :grin:

Our boat got almost 30, wild and hatchery fishing the Columbia and Channel, and they were clean without net marks.

Now on the N.Fk.Nehalem, there's been years that I've really been surprised by the number of coho with net marks.
