Keep it coming Salmo g and CFM. You guys enlighten all of us!

I personally like the idea of trapping the tribal and nontribal gillnet allocation at each of the dams. These user groups have reduced the fish to nothing more than a commodity to be exploited for the meat alone. Let them form their own separate co-op's to staff their respective fish collection quota at each dam. Each can split the proceeds however they see fit.

Why invest in all that gear, gas, sweat and heartache chasing those fish when the fish will just come to them? Why maim the fish or allow unwanted by-catch to perish with miles of mesh? The traps could be 100% selective with negligible mortality for non-target species!
