As long has hatchery supplimentation occures in washington state comercial fishing will favor over wild runs and sport fishers. That is why we had hatcheries in the first place to suppliment comercial fisheries as wild stocks couldnt keep up.

Now the tribes harvest in terminal areas to harvest their share of the hatchery fish without regard to the wild ones in nearly all cases.

Do you really think hatchery salmon and stelhead are planted for sport opportunities?

Only in rivers that dont have hatchery supplimentation do you see any type of balance in tribal comercial harvest and wild fish escapement. This is because wild fish have to succeed in order for them to maintain comercial harvest. If wild stocks collapse so does their fishery.

In rivers that have hatchery supplimentation it dosent matter if they catch every last wild fish.

Now as far as the Quinault's go they just dont clip their fish. They really dont want to be able to tell the difference.
