Nativepride,

There lies the problem. According to the Point-no-Point Treaty Council. http://www.pnptc.org/regs/salmon/F2000-065_STEELHD_Annual_2000.txt

The rivers that can be harvested are given a wide window of opportunity, there is no day allotment like that on the Hoh or other rivers. So someone isn't sure whether or not the tribe has the right to net the Hoko, or sekiu, and on what dates. Also the harvest numbers are posted after two years, by the WDFW, after the season, so checking accuracies is difficult.

And if illegal netting was happening, who would one call?
You can see why someone would start to get very frustrated.

These vague schedules are killing the smaller rivers.
