I recently read an article from the N.W. Indian Fisheries Assoc that was regarding the enforcement of the tribal fisheries and how well that they monitor and enforce all the regulations and do not allow for any illegal activities during their numerous net fisheries state wide. So i thought it would be interesting to find out just how many incidents/contacts/citations seizures that have been reported over the past few years for some of the major tribes in the state. I have requested numerous times any info that shows even one ticket given to any tribal member on any tribal fishery in the state. I have been 100% ignored by every tribal fishery that i have contacted. I am curious if it is possible that the tribes even write citations at all to illegal fisherman and their practices. I know that it is not realistic that no tribal members break the law during a net fishery. I am just curious as to why I cant get any info at all that would put a good light on how well the tribes enforce the laws and protect the resource. Just a thought?????
