Siletz

It doesn't give a lot of opportunity for new growth, and that's a thing in Oregon.

But the rest of the state, pretty much everywhere else we go is free market, open season, and know i don't see a problem with the a lot of guides on the river matter of fact i mean because of what we've taught to a lot of people there's a lot more people other fishing that aren't fishing with guides too catching as many fish as we are especially when it comes to steelhead and the evolution of the bead I mean, you go down a river like the Siletz River, there's not only 10 guides going down there, but there's eight other non-guides going all fishing the same way.

Especially when we're on the water together via your content and our show.

Even though you're so busy and family and trying to juggle everything, of course, I'm always calling you for stuff like this, but, uh, You know, there's a handful of projects you're involved with, very passionate about.

You and some of the guides down there in Oregon are involved in, you know, trying to ensure that these fisheries survive.

The Siletz Broodstock Program is one of those.

Talk a little bit real briefly about a few of these programs you're involved with and how important it is to have guides, you know, pony up and be involved in these processes to ensure the future of fishing on some of these areas.

My f- my folks have property up in Siletz, and I was living out on the coast, and so I'd, I'd take the river road on that, and every single time I'd go up that road, I'd try and beat the time, you know?

Beat, go a little faster and [laughs] yeah, you get a little ignorant on that bike.
