As much as I disagree with bassrods on many issues, he DID NOT break any laws by catching Kokanee Salmon at Flaming Gorge. If he harvested them, then he broke the law. NOWHERE in his post did he say he took any of them.
[quote bassrods].We then headed to a place we knew some Cokes hang this time of year..
We use a dropshot on the cokes and between two of us we got over 20 +..
We got off the water by 1:00pm to eat and rest some and was back in the boat by 4:00pm and heading back up lake.. The Lakers would play we got 6 and 2 bass but could not find any snakes that wanted to play..
Saturday we hit Linwood bay again but only got 4 Lakers and 1 snake..About 9:00am we headed over to try for the Cokes again and fished till noon in the snow then the wind came up so we called it a day..
Drop shoting for cokes is a lot of fun we found them in 60' of water but the Cokes was from 20' to 35' deep, and yes it snowed on us off and on all the way home...[/quote]
There is no way that I could make the assumption that you were obeying the law. YOU left much too much room for doubt.
