Yes, it is, and a visit may be in order ... perhaps in front of property with some informational flyers. I sent a note off to the WSC folks to see if we can work on getting these fish on the 'Avoid' list for the seafood watch cards as well.

I have sent a note off to Peter stating the importance of healthy fish stocks to the Forks community and as President of the Olympic Peninsula Guides' Association - to our members and their families that live here.

I pointed out that only serving hatchery fish is a bad idea as well because of the fact that these fisheries intercept the few early fish that remain ... and that WDFW has seen enough issue with them to keep them off limits to sporties for the first time as well.

I also mentioned that data is only provided by those hired by the tribes and that previous employees have come forth and told they were instructed to fudge their numbers.

I am also asking all of you to avoid eating at Ray's until which time they are removed from their menu as I mentioned in the letter and will also pass this word along to all OPGA membership to pass along to their clientele base at our next meeting. That's many thousands of people ...

All about the buck for them it appears.
