I think wildfishlover is on the money- money being the key word here... Let's have statewide gambling, and then let the tribes try to compete.. They're gonna end up with some ritzy fireworks stands if they choose to continue on the course that they insist on following. Hit'em where it hurts- in their wallets. If they cannot or will not relent on their policy of raping the resource, then the state(being all-powerful) can apply some policies that may make the tribes think twice about their stubborn attitudes. Maybe a drop in casino revenues will make them reconsider, and maybe relent on their common practice of "US FIRST"...I must add, however, that it is not only tribal netters, but the commercial netters, that are pillaging the stocks of fish.Commercial and tribal, or a combination of the two, will ultimately destroy what is left of the fishery that once was Washington State's hertitage. What can we as sports fishers really hope to do to stop the downward spiral?
