And yet..only two stakeholders besides myself even bothered to speak to the Commission this morning about the issues in our fisheries.

I get it, people are tired of me “beating my drum” about the importance of transparency in the harvest decisions.

I also understand the thousands of stakeholders who have just plain given up. Resolved to let those who have the power, continue to take advantage. After all...nothing is gonna change.

What amazes me is how surprised fishermen still are at the end of the North of Falcon, where the secret deals are made, and the NWIFC coerces WDFW to accept reductions under threat. Really? Does anyone really think that all of a sudden they are going to be fair.

Insanity...
