Soon he's off to pursue the great coho salmon in Newfoundland, cross the Rockies in a special Union Pacific train and jet across the Atlantic to hunker down on the banks of England's Test River, where Bush was told a fellow named William Shakespeare fished for trout. "Ah, the Bard and me along the Test," he spoofs. "They say that you are not a man until you have been to the Great Wall and fished the Test. I've been to the Great Wall...
Next time the budget meetings and staff cuts and underwater options make you desperate to get far, far away, imagine this. You are standing on the sandbar of a wild river, casting a gaudy pink-and-purple Showgirl streamer at coho salmon the size of fence posts holding in a pool downstream. There's not another human within 100 square miles. The helicopter that dropped you off will return in four hours as the sun slips behind the mountains. By then you will have hooked at least 20 shining silver coho weighing from 8 lbs. to 15 lbs. You will...
...They were also concerned about the law, in terms of eating animals like grizzly bear, beaver, horse and whale. Worst of all, they certainly weren't going to let me eat dog.

It is unfortunate that you characterized what we achieved as saving a few "scraps" of wildlife habitat.

...rainmakers. And the other 4,000 acres paid for by the Deal, though they have some big trees, are too fragmented to be an effective wildlife habitat for murrelets, Pacific giant salamanders and the spotted owls that loggers love to hate. In particular, they offer little protection for coho salmon, listed as threatened in the state. Salmon need cool, shaded, clear streams for spawning. Aggressive, steep-slope logging cuts shade and pours down sediment. This is no secret, but the state has not enforced regulations to protect salmon streams, and the new Headwaters legislation, say critics, stipulates buffer zones...
