I would kind of like to know this also. I have my suspicions that its probaly the majority of tribal hatcheries that are funded by federal dollars, but i don't know for sure. I hear every body talking about getting involved, and that's a very warm and fuzzy concept, but I just have one question.What in the hell are we paying these outrageous liscense and usage fees for?! Isn't that money supposed to go back into the program, or are we just paying our hard earned money for the priveldge of getting to wet a line? I understand the whole thing of habitat restoration and privately funded hatcheries, but isn't that what our licsencing money is suposed to do? As for the individual who refered to the fishing publics' "Thinly vieled racsism" My frustration with tribal fishermen has nothing to do with racism. I just get aggrevated that the tribes preach about "heritage, tradition, and how the tribes have always historically been the true stewards of the environment, yet they would rather decimate aqn entire river in the name of thier "right to harvest" than to have to cut back and go without like the rest of us.
