Sky Guy,

Harvests are not balanced according to Boldt, but we've known that for years. There are practical reasons for that, and it's legal so long as the co-managers agree to it. And yes, ESA does throw an additional wrench into the salmon management soup; we know that too. So I don't think it's a harvest cover up. I'm sticking with the sex with animals hypothesis until I see clear, cogent, and convincing evidence to the contrary.
