Thanks for the reply. I have never thought you guys were in it for the money. I still personally would have moral issues with accepting money from any group that knowingly goes against what your group is trying to accomplish. Its a kin to the NAACP taking money from the KKK.
By taking this issue to court, you are alienating a lage group of possible supporters.
The majority of fishermen want there to be better habitat and more wild fish, but not at the expense of having no retention fisheries. flyfishermen and steelhead fanatics (put me in the second group) appreciate a C n R fishery as much or in some cases more than a kill fishery. That being said, WFDW won't make anough money from C n R guys to pay for the saving of wild fish.
i would say put your battles else where, try and make the ESA apply to all fisherman (native americans). Work to get the and dams out of the rivers, then see about ending hatcheries.
