I believe WDFW could and should do better with their funding but they receive a lot less than necessary to meet what people expect off them.
what is that necessary number c-man? Whatever they tell us they need? We expect more out of them because they like to be non-transparent with the public, have in person meetings, instead of hiding behind a screen. Bastardized our fisheries for the almighty dollar. This new funding will get pissed away like the last, with no accountability. Then they will be begging for more in the next 5-10 years. Ya know. The Washington way.
