Speaking of spending on fishery programs...

I have no idea what kind of money the Muckleshoots spend on their fisheries program, but I would assume that tribe's with succesful casinos spend a smaller percentage of their overall budgets on fisheries, for the simple reason of there being more money to spend in other places. But, I do know that all tribes in western Washington with treaty rights have fisheries programs, all have enforcement officers and most have hatcheries.

And simply to compare the Muckleshoots to the State of Washington: Its been said that the tribe only spends 1 percent on fisheries, while the state of Washington only spends 3 percent of its overall budget on environmental programs! The Mukleshoots co-manage the fisheries in a very finite area, roughly Lake Washington and the Duwamish system. While the state of Washington covers, well, the state. The state's environmental spending also funds WDFW, DNR, DOE, among others (and, only DFW can be considered "fisheries"). People who pay taxes to a glass house shouldn't throw stones.
