Listen, there are good sport fisherman who care about the environment and the fish runs. There are also dishonest fishermen and snaggers out there who don't give a crap about anybody else besides bringing home some meat.

Its the same with tribal fishermen. Some of them care very deeply about the fish runs and the elk herds, and some don't give a **** about anything.

You can't group a bunch of people together and call them "tribal fishermen" and then extrapolate every misdeed you see onto the group as a whole.

Now when the tribes manipulate the law and regulations for their benfit, like exceeding treating allocations to the detriment of me (and other sport fishermen) then I will speak out against it. This is an organized effort to grab all they can from a shared resource, and everyone else gets crapped on. mad
