Thanks for sharing. That just reads like advice on a sad way to live...angry, frustrated, lashing out at the world. I wonder what could be accomplished by encouraging people to get involved, engaged and looking for positive solutions? Its too bad we closed steelhead fisheries and lost a whole generation of people who cared deeply about steelhead...cared enough to get involved, joining organizations and work from within to make a positive difference for steelhead.

Advocating standing on the outside looking in casting stones only leads to that way of life (angry, frustrated, lashing out). A waste of incredible talent and effort sadly at a time when the SFAB now has the Province of BC participating at the Main Board to advance the interests of steelhead. Opportunity lost if people follow the advice in that article.

Yes I was great to see the province participating at SFAC/ SFAB levels now...

Agree. We see this so many times with great people. It's a shame.
