Can anyone tell me what the devil this means? How is it applied to keeping records on tribal caught fish?

The first part makes sense, but at the end it says; "This rule does not apply to treaty Indians nor to fish purchased from a fish buyer licensed by the Department of Fish and Wildlife."

Buying treaty Indian Caught Fish:
"In order to buy, sell or process STEELHEAD, Sea Run, cutthroat, or Dolly Varden/bull trout lawfully taken by a treaty Indian, a person must meet the following requirements; The fish must be accompanied by a written statement showing takers name, address, tribal affiliation, and treat identification card number, number of fish, date and location taken. This rule does not apply to treaty Indians nor to fish purchased from a fish buyer licensed by the Department of Fish and Wildlife."

And what about Salmon, why don't they need to record salmon on there catch or sales records?

Is anybody else getting confused?
