Meanwhile I think it's high time to embrace some of Jacksalmon's perspective and channel his energy toward a positive end. The pie will never be large enough. I listed reasons that should be persuasive enough. Since we have treaty right fishing that is federally protected and we can't do anything about it, why on earth do we need a non-treaty commercial troll fleet and gillnet fleet? There is not a shortage of commercially caught salmon. Either we wait until it is so unprofitable that they hang it up, or we humanely legislate them off the water. The former means salmon will be in such low abundance that sport fishers won't bother either, while the latter preserves an opportunity to save a reasonable amount of recreational fishing.
