"Steve, as 4Salt pointed out, there is a lot more to the division of fish than just what fishermen see at the ol' fishing hole. The non-tribal share is not just caught at the pens near Squaxin...they're also caught in lots of other places in Puget Sound as they travel around."

Yep, I hear ya! I understand it goes on everywhere. I have seen small rivers with net floats all the way across. I wasn't fishing at the time, but I couldn't help but think "Gee, how can any fish get through that?" Certainly not 50%! I always wondered where do they get the stocks to raise? If they aren't using the roe from the fish they kill, are they buying it from somewhere?
