To me this was the important question regarding this fishery, and here is the response I received from WDFW:

Last year the winter treaty Indian troll fishery was managed as a season, October 1, 2004 - April 30, 2005, the catch assumption that was modeled was based on the most recent six-year average of 1,650 fish. This year the fishery is November 1, 2005 - February 28, 2006, 4 days per week, not to exceed a catch quota of 8,500 fish.

I personally am satisfied with this result and would like to suggest that maybe a boycott would not be productive as we have achieved about all that we could expect to achieve.

Any thoughts??
