Initially, at least, there will be no effect on the Indian netting. The 4(d) rules, when they come out, may or may not deal with them then. Then there is the whole argument of whether or not the ESA applies to tribal activities. We may find out this time.
I think the listing will help pass the B.A.N. initiative because it will be educational to people who did not realize what trouble the fish were in. They may see B.A.N. as part of the solution.
The hatchery fish question is tougher. Listing chinook will likely mean less chinook raised in hatcheries so as to reduce the chances of genetic infiltration of hatchery stocks into the native stocks.
On rivers where the hatchery and native kings return together, without fin clipping the hatcheries, there will be no way to tell the difference, so probably no way to have a fishery. With both steelhead and silvers fin clipping has been able to allow us to fish over depressed stocks and selectively release the natives and keep the hatchery fish. Hopefully that can happen here, too.
Habitat will be the biggest issue because that's the one that will affect the most people, and especially the use of their property. They're only seeing the tip of the iceberg right now. It will be big, depending on the breadth of the 4(d) rules.
Fish on...
