For years the non-Indian share haaaas been considerably below a 50% limit of "harvestable" steelhead


Ah T3 not everyplace. In Grays Harbor the Nation does have a larger impact on wild Steelhead and it limits their season. Rec on the other hand take more Steelhead as we do C&R on wild. So % wise in GH Rec take more winter Steelhead. Then as we have Summerrun Rec harvest the balance is even more tilted to non treaty fishers. Then the Chehalis Tribal catch ( they are non treaty ) is also added to the states share.

Run reconstruction for a example year is 2016 and it was QIN 2165 and NT 9142. 10 yr average is QIN 664 and NT 6081. The five year average is QIN 885 and NT 6177. These numbers do not include the Chehalis Tribe and they average 1200 to a 1000 a year.

Sometimes things are not what they seem to be.
