I think including wild steelhead release in the category of issues WDFW does not have to consult with the tribes on is incorrect. That is a catch and release policy and the tribes demand to be consulted. Steelhead catch and release is in the same realm as salmon catch and release. The tribes may not have been in the loop on the commission's decision on C&R of wild steelhead but I bet they wanted to be. I bet also they will push the issue on future C&R plans much stronger. Hopefully they will realize the benefits and not continue to always want something in return for everything they agree to.
