How many times have we seen this? Remember the $10 added to the license for Puget Sound salmon enhancement ONLY.....? Well right now that extra money we have been paying in for years is NOT being used for the stated purposes. It is currently being illegally diverted by WDFW.

Hopefully if the crab bill passes we will all keep our eyes on where all that extra money goes. I'm afraid if we don't do something like this we will lose our crabbing opportunities to the commercials and especially to the tribes who are threatening to sue over the lack of accurate catch recording for the sports sector.
