I got a new perspective from this meeting. In the quilleute there’s roughly 3,300 fish above escapement and the Indians are entitled to half of that so will they really take half, or less, or more? Our half will be spread out through c&r, they are assuming we’ll take 1,600 fish by c&r & if so that is insane! If 1,600 fish get killed by c&r that’s a complete waste of fish. II’ve released quite a few steelies and by my count I can only guess I killed one, the rest I wouldn’t be surprised if they lived. If the numbers that I have correlate with all c&r fisherman I think the natives are jacking us into believing we’re killing fish by c&r & taking our share too. As for the other rivers not meeting escapement or coming in a couple over they should just be shut down till they resemble the quilleute model.
