Our "stewards" are actually prepared to defend a QUINTUPLING of the the 2% impact! Like I said in the MSY thread, when the WDFW mindset only has one tool in the box, that's the one they are going to use. HARVEST HARVEST HARVEST!


These guys just don't get it. Here's a perfect example:

"The proposed realignment of impact limits does not change our intention to minimize wild steelhead mortality," Norman emphasized.

Let's see our intention is "to minimize wild steelhead mortality," but we're going into this meeting to recommend killing 5 times as many wild steelhead. Can they even hear how stupid that sounds?

Can anyone out there say CREDIBILITY GAP?
