Quote:
However, not enough of a crisis, apparently, for the state to invoke its court-granted authority to close all fisheries - including tribal net fisheries - in the case of a conservation emergency.

As an outsider, but someone who drops a lot of money in Forks when we are there several times a year, a long standing question has just been answered in the quote. More people need to KNOW that the authority is there to enforce the ruling against everyone. If it is enough of a crisis for the sportmen then it surely should apply to the Indians as well.
If there is sufficient data to close sport fishing,
then why hasn't the state gotten the data from the tribes as they saw this coming.
