It would be interesting to see the communication between the Tribe and the State. I believe the tribe, as a result of indiscriminate fishing, gets the lion share of the wild encounters, to ensure their 50%. Now, if the non-tribal side is being shut out of the fishery due to the number of wild encounters, the allocations will need to be corrected. If the state were to admit that they closed it down due to too many wild encounters, before the recs could get their share, they would need to redo their allocations, which would reduce the tribes numbers. Granted, it would have to be next year, but since this is two years straight, something would need to be done, but, since that can't happen ....
