I do remember one session, though, when the Leg fought back. Every salmon hatchery was line item budgeted. Which meant that WDF could not shift it around. That actually may be something that folks should consider when contacting their legislators. Make parts of the WDFW line item. Each hatchery, specific fisheries (put Skagit C&R as a line item, etc.). Kind of extreme, but if you can't trust WDFW to follow intent, don't give them the wriggle room.
