Eliminate all gillnetting in the Willipa Bay water shed. The reason why too many species that are getting close to being listed or endangered and the other species that are listed and endangered the bay is no place for gillnets with the way salmon runs and steelhead runs are doing in the bay it’s time to eliminate it. Look down the Oregon coast they eliminated gillnetting in 1945. And the other issue is sea lions, harbor seals and freshwater otters , seabirds the fish eaters eaters too many predators in Willipa bay the native fish don’t have a chance to recover.

The gillnetters that gillnet Willipa Bay , Columbia river it’s just a play fishery for them . They make less than 5% of their living in these fisheries 99% of the gillnetters in Washington and Oregon make their living‘s in Alaska and crabbing off the Washington and Oregon coast. Shut down gillnetting in the state of Washington and Oregon it is not necessary it does too much damage to the environment and to the native stocks of salmon and steelhead and other fish species that are listed or are endangered.
