Like has been said before, We need to clean out our closet before we can go on to someone elses.

CnR of wild steelhead is first, then we go after the tribes.

Once we get wild steelhead release without exception the war will begin agianst the tribes, WDFW will eventually have no choice but to go with the interests of the sport fishing community and fight the tribes for our fish.

Rather than to split our communtiy farther apart I believe CNR is what will bring us together and funnel all of our energy agianst the tribes.

We need the tribes to utilize forgone oportunity, or just continue what they are doing while we dont have the option any more, before sport fishers as a whole will unite on this issue and fight the real problem

I believe WDFW has wanted to keep the fight between sport fishers the whole time instead of going after the real issue. Thats why they are side stepping the CNR issue this year. They know it would most likely pass this year if heard and they dont want to deal with what it will cause.
