Here you go...the price to pay for running a derby...the "me too" clause kicks in to allow a commercial fishery...let's just pray the big spawning chinook somehow avoid the nets - could see this one coming a country mile away...sorry feeling a little betrayed for all the efforts to release large over 77 cm fish only to have this happen...not happy at the moment.
